On of my ancestors was a lighterman as late as 1911 and some census returns say it was on a barge. Would it have something to do with moving heavy freight around the docks?
Also his wife was born in Missouri and she has to have come from the US in around 1880, what bought her over here, or did Richard go over to fight and brought her back with him?
