There was a Humble's garage in High Blaydon in the 50s, 60s and 70s that I know of: petrol station and car repairs.  High Blaydon was the west end of Blaydon opposite Horse Crofts and the path up to Ottovale coke works.  I'm afraid that's all I know.

Oh, I believe there was a Humble's garage at Throckley too on the Hexham Road.

I am the Daughter of the youngest daughter, and Uncle Bob's sister, Enid. My Mam emigrated to America in the late sixties. I am looking for Thomasina's (nee Hutchinson)relatives, particularly her sister who ended up in Galveston, then Houston, Texas. My Mam had some contact with her in the nineties. As Houston is still under water, due to the catastrophic hurricane, I'm sure she'd like to know her cousins are safe. I can only remember my great aunt's daughter's surname Darby, and I don't even know if I'm spelling that right.
