Link: Brotton History and Photographs

[julieriddiough]

Hiya I dont know if this is of any help to anyone but I have started a website for Brotton History

I have quite a few old photographs of various places in Brotton if any one wants  any.  Also I am currently adding census records (it's taking a while)  but  If you need me to look for anything in the meantime let me know.

I have a section of unidentified photos too if your having problems identifying people or places.

not sure if i'm allowed to post the link to the site hee maybe someone could tell me if its ok, if not pm/email me and i'll give you the link.

Julie, this looks really good, thanks for the link. I don't have Brotton ancestry but I did go to school with people who lived there so I shall be interested in seeing of any of them sign the guestbook. Also have a cousin who lives in New Brotton - must tell him about the site in case he doesn't know.

I am interested in the mining history of the area so shall be checking the site from time to time.

Cheers,

Jen
