Maxxangel's Scavenger Hunt..Everyone Welcome To Join In.

                                       *************************

I have hit a brick wall with my great great grandparents. I have been unable to find anything on their deaths and I am struggling to find my G G Grandmother on the censuses. Here's what I know so far:

My G G Grandaddy was born Tom Squires Tutin on 10th Jan 1862 in Great Ouseburn, Yorkshire. His family then moved to Durham where his siblings were born. On 1st Aug 1882 he married Lily Moore and shortly after they moved to Ireland. My Great Grandad, Arthur, was born in Belfast, so I'm guessing they lived there. I haven't found a trace of any of them on the 1911 Ireland census, but family stories say that Arthur worked at the shipyards during the building of the Titanic. Arthur's marriage certificate lists his father (Tom) as a marine engineer, so is it possible they moved around? In later years Tom is more often listed on certificates as Thomas.

Lily I have less on. The marriage certificate lists her father as Henry Moore, but I have been unable to find them together on the English censuses. The marriage lists them both as age 21, which I expect is unreliable as Tom would have been 20, but I guess she would have been born around 1862.

Many thanks,

Hi

There is a Lily Moore born in the Dewsbury Area in  Dec 1863  9b 519

Dewsbury is in Yorkshire.

This could be worth investigating further?

looking at this further in the 1881 census there is a Lily Moore in the Dewsbury area -Liversedge in fact.

MOORE, Elizabeth Head Married F 45 1836 Housekeeper (Domestic)  born Heckmondwike 
MOORE, Eliza Ann Daughter Single F 19 1862 Worsted Spinner  born Heckmondwike
MOORE, Lily Daughter Single F 17 1864 Worsted Spinner born Heckmondwike
MOORE, Albert E Son  13 1868 Scholar born Heckmondwike
MOORE, Charley Son  11 1870 Scholar born Heckmondwike
MOORE, Annie Daughter  7 1874 Scholar born Heckmondwike

Looking further there is a marriage on Freebmd of a Henry Moore possibly to an Elizabeth Dawson Mar 1855 9b_441

which would then raise the question of where is Henry at the time of the census in 1881?

the age at marriage can sometimEs be irrelevant as they could just put full, 25 21 etc to indicated they were of full age to marry and they were not actaully that age, however if they age given was something like 44 or 16 this would be more reliable   :)

Lily Moore her fatehr Henry what was his occupation ? and also her address at time of marriage?
