Title: Marriage of Benjamin Moore of Kegworth
Post by: Mary Beth on Saturday 09 March 13 16:16 GMT (UK)

Hello.
My gg grandfather, Benjamin Moore, immigrated to the USA in 1853, with his brother, and his brothers family and another relative.  I believe he may have marriad in England and his wife died, before coming to the USA.  On the Free BMD search I found a Benjamin Moore listed as marriad in December 1851. Shardlow and also one for March 1853 Leicester.  He was from Kegworth, where his parents are buried in St. Andrews churchyard.  I'm hoping that I can get help with this.
Kindly,
Mary Beth

Thank you.  Appears to be the 1853 is not him.  Possible that the 1851 could be, but I would need to see details.  His parents were Joseph and Ann Moore of Kegworth.

What was Benjamin's brother's name, and the brother's wife's name?
