    Default William Moore

    Hi,
    I am stuck finding the birth record of one of my Scottish ancestor.
    His name is William Moore (1825 more or less, Leith, Midlothian)
    Father name: Charles/Charlton Moore
    Mother name: Mary
    The family of William in 1841 census in England:

    The marriage of William in 1846 in England:
    https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QPH4-VY23
    William Moore in 1851 census in England:
    https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SG63-G1V
    William Moore appears also in 1861, 1871 and 1891 census in Scotland, so i suppose that he dead there.
    Any help finding his birth and death?
    (I have search in scotlandpeople, but no luck)
    Thanks in advance.

    I can't see the entries on Family Search as all I seem to get are loads of baptisms, no census entries. Can you give the name of the spouse in the marriage please, also where did he marry and more info on the 1851 census. Trying to find entries on Ancestry but there are too many William Moore's

    Welcome to the British Genealogy Forum.
    I see from the 1841 census entry you gave that Charlton/Charles and his wife Mary were both Irish,. They must have arrived in Scotland before 1824 since William was born in Scotland, but they had moved to England by 1831 when James was born in Northumberland.
    Do you know Charles' occupation was?
