Jane, I know you and Keith have done some genealogy research before...
I am wondering if you have ever heard of an occupation called "Morocco Worker"
I have several ideas but I am not sure that any of them are correct. This is listed in a death record.
Keith asked: What country & what is the surname?
A few definitions came up when I googled it.
