Hi Rosemary, Mary is listed as a Widow in 1861. I checked the Scotlands People index and there is not a death entry for a Peter Moore around his age between 1855-1861 in all Scotland! He either died before 1855 or not in Scotland. Possibly a lister with access to Stranraer MIs could see if he is there?
