tullybrone Posted 6 December , 2018 Share Posted 6 December , 2018 Hi, Thanks for your endeavours for Driver Mossop Fingers crossed its not too long until a headstone is erected above his final resting place in Westnewton, Cumbria. I came across his name while searching Ancestry on a free weekend in 2017. He is buried a couple of miles inland from my holiday caravan site on the West Cumberland coast.
