Many thanks I will check this out. He was married to a Sarah Wagg and was a labourer from the census information.

Shropshire / Samuel Gough - Born c1818 - Looking for death
« on: Monday 25 January 16 15:11 GMT (UK)  »
My great great grandfather was born in Mainstone Shropshire and the last information i have is the 1891 census and has him living alone aged 72. In looking for the death there is a death in Madeley. The other census results show him in Minsterley. Are these areas near each other? and can this be his death.

Many thanks. Not been here for a while but have now resumed my research.

I  can confirm the brothers birth dates are correct. They were both born in Larne and were both baptised at Larne Methodist Church. There were other brothers and one was injured in the first world war. He was Stephen Gough.

Thanks

Please let me know if you need anything else and I would be interested to see any memorial/publication etc.

Ok thanks to all. I got the crew records and it states it was his first ship, so he must have served with the Royal Navy till 1907 and was discharged. Then he must have joined the Merchant Navy in 1918 which sadly was his frst and last voyage with the Merchant Navy. So it seems the photograph was taken before the end of 1907.

Thanks everyone.

Thanks everyone. Was the canadier a Royal Navy ship? Have looked at national archives but they charge 3.30 to view the record so I'll do that tomorrow. Could the people on the photo part of the forum date the photo?
That would confirm if it is in fact John Richard.

Thanks again everyone.

Yes that is him but don't know if this picture is him. If the uniform is Royal Navy then it likely is him. Please can you send me the link to the archives on him.
Thanks

This is a photo of my great uncle John Richard Gough who died whilst on a ship in Canada in 1918. Please can anyone tell if the uniform is Merchant or Royal Navy?

Thanks
Tess
