Hello,
I seem to have missed your reply re: Stanley Cottage some time ago.
My gr. grandfather James Noble died 12 Mar 1895 at Stanley Cottage, while with his daughter and son in law, William and  Eleanor Henderson. James Noble is buried at Longhirst. His death notice in the Morpeth Herald and Reporter Sat. Mar 16 pg. 8 says:

 " At Hexham Stanley Cottage (at the home of his son in law, William Henderson) 12th inst.. in his 81st year, Mr. James Noble. Upwards of 50 years a faithful and valued servant in the Lawson family of Longhirst Hall."

James Noble was a gardener at longhirst hall from 1841 through 1891?
William Henderson was a gamekeeper. The 1881 census shows him living at Thorneyhirst Cottage Birtley. The 1891 shows him at Old Sawmill House,  Gunnerton. The 1901 census has him at Whickhope Lodge, Wellhaugh Falstone as a gamekeeper. His wife Eleanor died 1902 while at Whickhope. He was there as well in 1911. William died 1928 retired at 86 years at Lanehead, Coanwood Lambley. I don't know how long he was at Stanley Cottage, or where he worked while there.
I contacted Beaufort Castle, the reply said that they had no record of him there, but if he worked at Whikhope any information would be in the archives of Alnwick Castle. I have not managed to justify though, the cost of that search.
Sorry my information is so scant.

Hello,
What I am looking for is a little confusing as I am not 100% certain of the father's name.   I am looking for the birth of Jean/Janet Noble who was born to Annie Middlemass Noble and James Noble sometime between 1911 and 1920. There is a slight possibility that the father's name might been different.
Her brother was Ernest Noble who was christened at St. Gabriel Heaton living at Ninth Ave. Heaton in 1899. Ernest and his mother's address in 1917 was at Shamrock Rd. Hebburn. I believe they would have been Church of England.
Thanks,
Sallylynne

Hello,
I am looking for a christening at hebburn Northumberland
between 1900 and 1919. Can anyone tell me where I might
find these records?
On the Genuki site the birth records for this area
are only mentioned up to 1900.
thank you

Hello,
I am wondering if anyone might know which newspapers might cover the Acklam area and which libraries/archives might have them. I am looking for an obituary from 1951.
thanks

Hello,
I am sorry, but have no idea what part of the cemetery the stone is located in.
I only have note of the inscription given to me by a rootschat member.

"Janet, wife of John George Middlemass.
died 17 september 1903. age 53

also George James, son of above
Died of wounds from action in France, 6 July 1917  aged 29

John George. died 5 August 1920. age 73"

I don't know when it was copied down, and just hope the stone is still
in place.

Thank you for your help and interest.

Sallylynne.

Does anyone know of a 'Stanley Cottage" Portgate, Hexham?
I was originally looking for Stanley Cottage in Hexham, but re reading the death record I see it is
"Stanley Cottage" Portgate Hexham.
I have found a map online that shows Portgate as a crossing on the Roman Wall near Corbridge. There is a Stanley Plantation (forest) nearby as well.
My g grandfather was a gamekeeper and according to his father in law's obituary and death record
he lived at this cottage.
I am wondering if anyone who lives in that area might know more about the cottage and where a gamekeeper in 1895 might be working. Would also love a photo of the cottage if it still exists.
