I am not sure why he was in San diego.Originally he had emigrated with his aunt and grandfather and grandmother at age 7.to New york.Infact i am not sure of why they went at all in the first place.Also his other aunt lived there but must have migrated separately as she isnt on the ships list.Both aunts lived in Long beach until their death.

I am not so sure.All i know is he died in San diego and was buried New mexico.This grave doesnt look like i remember from my grandads photo but i could be wrong or like you said it could be a memorial.

That is a lovely spot....Billy is buried in New mexico.He threw himself off the Aero drive bridge onto highway 395 aged 20 :-[ :'(.I am now on ancestry and i will have to upgrade to view the USA death certificate if i can find it first that is...I have found his birth details as he was born UK and found the ship records when he was taken to New york aged 7.Will there be a death certificate i wonder though.

Thankyou for your reply.I found an article about my uncle who died in 1960 in San diego...i was always told his car went off a freeway...the article stated he committed suicide 3rd attempt  at 20.the same age as my son now.All that time my grandfather must have carried that.
