Hello Anthony Pearson. I have removed the Pearson name from the list.
The name was there by mistake.

Hi, I'm interested in Nicholas Raine married in Escomb church to Ann, and buried there in 1898.  Do you have the inscription for any Raines please

Hello Cannon. The only Raine gravestone at Escomb is one at the old Saxon church yard for Hannah, Dorothy and Thomas Johnson. They are all from the 1850's
There are no Raine gravestones at the municipal cemetery at Escomb.

Thanks for that.  That's interesting, I have a photo of the old church here saying Nicholas Raine's tombstone is to the left of the church door.  Could that be so?

Hello Cannon. Are you sure you have the correct church?
The latest date shown on any of the gravestones is 1859, 30 years before the one that you are looking for.
I would think that any burial for Escomb at that time would be the Halimond road cemetery, and as you will see by post number one the cemetery is in a poor condition.

re Nichols Raine
The photograph is certainly the ld church at Escomb bu it is quite possible tha the writing on the back is incorrect.  They were probably maried there in 1845 but buy the time he died in 1898 were living in Elswick.  He was a big Methodist and I have a copy of a eulogy from the Elswick Road Wesleyan Church so it is quite possible he was not in fact burried in Escombe.  He wa a director of the Iron works at Witton Park and his sons went on to found Raine and Co iron and steel.

Thanks again

Hi Adam

Can I ask what you are referring to St John's Church & municipal cemetery as?

St John's Church was at High Escomb, opposite the vicarage.  The church was long since demolished, the grounds now classed as the 'cemetery'.

The Saxon Church is in Escomb Village.

Hello Jay. The St Johns church that I am referring to is the Saxon church in Escomb.

The Hallimond road cemetery is the overgrown cemetery on the road out of Escomb.
