Upstairs in Blyth Library..... and in surname alpha order, x-reffed to grave site
But just burials, not MIs. There is MI list for Horton Parish churchyard.

It's a long time since I looked at these but I think, Michael, that they have MIs as well - or at least within the document you mention. I've just checked my notes on this infernal machine and those that I've transcribed for my family start with 'in loving memory' and similar.
There is a plan of the cemetery at the front of this file in the library.

Val,
Seems a nice straightforward throwaway question ? But it isn't !
Church Street was not built in 1854 ( according to 1860 Ordanace Map)
St Mary's Chapel/Church ( originally a chapel, satellite of St Mary The Virgin of Horton) started " business" in mid 1860s. By 1890s there is a school attached to it ( Church St, Bowes St, Wanley St.)
Also near gasworks there was a school attached to Methodist Chapel ( today would have been adjacent to Bus Station)
Further west, along Turner St ( Now Regent Street) there was a large school on junction with Wright Street.
In your era, there were all sorts of schools, some a one teacher business, some connected to religion, and some fee-charging, some day-some boarding. etc.
Trade Directories of the day listed schools in the locality.
( I THINK that an entry of "scholar" on a census did not necessarily mean child actually attended a school)

Val,
You can see my source of info - on line.
communities.northumberland.gov.uk
Enter " Blyth" community.
From left-hand menu enter " Printed Material" for trade directories
( unfortunately misses your desired era).
Other trade directories on line on Leicester Uni site.. www.historicaldirectories.org
"Plans" for map of Blyth centre)
"Ordnance Maps" ... 25 " versions for streets of Blyth.
For 1841 1851, what was page reference for your folk in Church Street- or their names..... those bits of what is now " Blyth" , that I am mentioning, were not called Blyth in 1841. Called Cowpen and Waterloo. Blyth was community then was only the south-east corner of modern-day Blyth.. including old police station, Ridley Park , road towards Seaton Sluice/Whitley Bay.
