It would seem that there are no listers researching the Thornley area so here are surnames for Willington. These cover 800 gravestones and not the entire cemetery. I usually stop when the dates get in to the 1920's or so. There are 32 colliery deaths amongst them.

I'm new to this and wondered if you might be able to help me.
Some of my ancestors come from Willington and wondered if you might be able to let me have the inscriptions for Parkinson and Dover?
Regards,
Mat

Hi
Firstly apologies if I have misread this but I am new to this!!
Am I correct in thinking you are able to provide the inscripions to graves in Willington?
I am researching the Boleyn family & I know they lived in Willington. After a search of this site I found your listing for Boleyn.
If there is anyway you could give me details of the inscriptions I would be most grateful.
Many thanks
Emma

Hello Doric. I have Ainsley names from 1924--1956. Are those dates OK are did you want earlier inscriptions?
