According to their son John's birth certificate in 1898 John was an Engine driver. He and Lucy went on to have at least three more children. On my mother's birth certificate in 1917 Lucy was using her maiden name of Mooney and John was stated to have been a miner and died in 1911 in Leslie in Scotland.
