Hi,
My name is Jane; I live in Australia and I am searching for info on the above man. I posted my message here as I hope he may have workd on this line. He lived in Somerville in 1930; he married a Mary Cleary - I believe he was a 'hoisting engineer.' I am not familar with railroads, and do not know what this term means.
Would anyone know where I might look for employees of the local Somerville railways? What is a hoisting engineer? Is this the correct term?
I would really appreciate any help as I am trying to find his family.
Thanking you in advance for any help you might be able to offer.
Kindest Regards,
jane
