Hi everyone,
I've been searching for a possible death pre 1851, in the Hebburn area.
According to Genuki :
Hebburn, before 1894 see Hedworth, Monkton & Jarrow / transferred to Durham North Eastern district on 1.1.1938.
If that is the case, where would you find the registration district on FreeBMD .. the following link to South Shields might help explain what I mean:
http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/south%20shields.html
I hope I'm not asking the obvious, I tried using the RootsChat search to find out if anyone else had ever had this query, but nothing came up ?
Pels.

Hi Pels,
It is a bit confusing, isn't it!
Well, I was just as confused as you, Pels, so I thought I would put in a death date from Mar qtr to Dec qtr 1851 and put Co. Durham as the county, using the name Smith as an example - just to see which registration districts came up. Then looking at them individually it was South Shields which contained the Hebburn area.
http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/south%20shields.html
So, I would give that a try, Pels.
Even, if I'm wrong, at least someone else might get alerted to your plight, and help you out - hope so.
Good luck.
Paulene 
And, as if by magic, while I was typing up my post Jennifer comes to our aid! Good exercise, anyway! 
Glad you got some help.

Hi.
Can only assume that the Hebburn dates follow on from the ones immediately below it - but it's not at all clear, is it. I'm sure there is a simpler way to put it

Hi Pels
Having read the Genuki links, I think the information there is very misleading - Hebburn doesn't seem to appear until 1938 there.
I think the answer is that Hebburn wasn't a named district/subdistrict in 1837 and was just part of South Shields.

sorry - this is a bit confused - Hebburn was part of Hedworth , Monkton and Jarrow until 1894

Think I'll try again. Rootschat is being slow and I tried to add to my previous post and got myself confused - a bit like the Genuki table 
From 1837 to 1894 Hebburn was part of the Hedworth Monkton and Jarrow sub-district of South Shields. It then became a sub-district of South Shields in it's own right until 1938 when it was moved to Durham North East .

Hi - I have spent many years researching family members who lived in the Hebburn Quay and Heworth area of Jarrow. If I can be of any use to you let me know.
As I understand it: before the 1837 Civil Registration Act , the records of births marriages and deaths were recorded in either the Parish Church of St Paul, Jarrow or in the Parish Church of St Mary, Heworth. The Parish of Jarrow also served Monkton and Hedworth.
When the registration district of South Shields was created in 1837, various sub districts were also created (as in other parts of the country). Hebburn (Hebburn Quay) was in the Hedworth Monkton and Jarrow sub district of the South Shields Registration District and Heworth was in the Registration District of Gateshead.
There was then a reorganization in 1894 After this - until 1937, Hebburn was it's own sub district as were Monkton and Jarrow.
In 1938, Hebburn (Hebburn Quay) Jarrow, Heworth & Boldon were reorganised in to the Durham Eastern Registration District.
If you would like help finding someone, let me know. There are records available online for some of the early Jarrow marriages.
I am researching Redheads.
Best wishes
Judith
