Nice searching John. To add some further information to what John has provided: Thomas's place of residence for the first marriage is given as Canoo Junction, Burdwan, and Anne's as Chandernagore. The alternative is that Thomas's is just Canoo Junction, and Ann's as Burdwan, Candernagore - the record can be interpreted both ways and I don't know enough about the geography to decide which is correct. Thomas's place of residence for the second marriage is again given as Canoo Junction, and Emma's as Calcutta. The second marriage took place at the Roman Catholic church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Dhurrumtollah. Annie Victoria Moore died on 11th July 1869 as a result of childbirth and was buried the same day at Burdwan. She is described as the wife of Thomas Moore, Contractor at Kanoo Junction. I have not found a corresponding baptism or burial for a child. I have found two children for Thomas and Emma. Mary Moore was born 5th October 1870 and baptised 9th October 1870 at Burdwan Catholic church. Place of abode was Kanoo Junction, and Thomas described as "Keeper of stores, Railw. Cpy." Robert Moore was born 19th June 1872 and baptised 2nd July 1872 at the Raneegunge and Rarnpore Roman Catholic place of worship. Place of abode was Raneegunge and Thomas was back to being a "Railway Inspector." I haven't been able to find anything else, but that doesn't mean to say there are no further records of interest.

I've done a little digging and found that Canoo Junction is only a few miles from Burdwan. Alternative names are Khana (Kanoo, Khanoo, Kanu) Junction and Barddhaman respectively. Chandernagore is 40 or 50 miles away, HTH Simon. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Noel Clark" india@rootsweb.com To: Cc: Sent:Fri, 28 Aug 2015 20:25:38 +1000 Subject:[INDIA] Thomas Moore Nice searching John.
