Hello Maureen, If you get time could you look at the 1851 Census in Lanchester possibly Leadgate. I'm looking for Martin Nailis (various spellings of surname) and Mary McKenna or McCanna. Both born Ireland. I'm also looking for the Nailis family, Martin would be the head, in 1871. Hopefully they should be in Dunstan, Gateshead by this time. Thanks for the offer. Best wishes, Janice.

Hi Maureen thanks very much for the offer if you have time. I fully appreciate how quickly time goes when you get to the records office. I am hoping if Thomas is buried in Tudhoe, the likelihood is that some of his children will be also. James death Dec qtr 1877 Lucy death Mar qtr 1891 Seth death Mar 1895 Happy searching with your own tree.Do hope you enjoy your day. regards Angela

Hi Maureen Thanks very much for the information. If you have the time would you please be able to look up in the burial records of Holy Innocents church for Thomas please. thanks Angela

Hello Maureen You very kindly did a look up on Thomas and Emma Holts childrens baptisms for me. they were all baptised at Holy Innocents church in Tudhoe. do you know if that church has a graveyard. Have found out that Thomas died in June qtr 1900 and wondered if he could be buried there. thanks for your help regards Angela

Susan Do you know where they were living on the 1901 Census and when they were married.. and if they were married by 1901 Death date will be up to you to find out.. cannot blanket search for over 50 years...I would need to have some kind of idea.. More Info please and they are not indexed either.. Maureen

Hi Maureen Sorry to haunt you again with the name MORALEE, as you've helped me a great deal in the past and I'm now further back!! I'm looking for a marriage of Matthew W Moralee 1804/1805 at Newcastle ?All Saints Not sure if you'll be able to help?? if you need any more details let me know Many Thanks Sarah :)

To maureem Thanks for the offer. i am trying to find any info on scotney around 1860-1875. as i live in australia it has been a strugle. any info would be appreciated. thanking you todd

Maureen , I already had those from Ancestry myself but because there were so many and England death cert don,t give the spouse name there was nothing to check against if i asked the records office . I was just wondering if the Buriel records would tell me more so i could narrow it down a bit . Cath

Maureen , Thanks for the offer . If this request is to difficult please let me know . Could you please see if you can find a couple of deaths for me . John Alexander born 1835 Scotland [Father also called John] Janet Alexander [his wife ] nee Mckinnon born 1836 Scotland father s; name Angus . 1891 census they were living in Ellison St Hedworth and Jarrow ,Durham But i can not find them on the 1901 census so i am presuming they died between that time . If it helps in 1901 Ellison St was under West ward /Jarrow Grange Christ church . I am presuming that the nearist Churches were Presbyterian Church and St Keldas church as those Churches are where 2 of the children were married which came under South Shields reg. office on marraige cert . Cath

Hi Maureen If you have time when you visit Durham Record Office could you please transcribe for me the entry from the Register of the following Marriage. Holy Trinity, Sunderland 10 January 1824 Ralph GILHESPY Margaret THOMPSON Many thanks Helen K

Maureen I don't live far from Houghton, Newbottle area so know it well - wouldn't venture through the main street in the dark though! LOL That info is actually very useful - The Nesham Place one interests me as that wasn't far from D'Arcy Street - in fact I've just looked at my Godfrey Map (invaluable thing) and there is a Presbyterian church and a Chapel in Nesham Place and it's quite near the D'Arcy street area. Neither of them are here now and the map doesn't show the South Eastern part of Houghton so perhaps there were more! There is also a Primitive Methodist Chapel at Sunniside which is just West of Houghton which must be the forerunner of the more modern one that is there now. I do apologise for not looking at the map first - I only asked because I was pretty sure they weren't Catholic so assumed it was St Michaels! Best Wishes
