Title: Richard Moore b.1799
Post by: glenbrighton on Saturday 27 July 13 16:19 BST (UK)

I am looking for my 3 x great grandfather Richard Moore who I believe was born in 1799 and spent most of his time living in Lambeth.

He married Elizabeth Jane Wakley in 1823 and was a butcher by trade.

They appear to have had a number of children and I can find them in the 1841 census living in Lambeth, St Mary.

In 1855 Elizabeth dies and they are living at 6 Wootton Street, Richard is described as a "Butchers Master".

I thought Richard had died in 1868 but I have the death certificate and its not him.

I have looked everywhere for Richard with no luck, any ideas?

Thanks

Glen

Sorry, I meant in 1851 living at the same address as the 1855 death cert Richard's place of birth is given as Windsor.  Elizabeth's is Devon and Richard jnr is Bove (should that be Bovey  :-\ )
