Hi Meegan ill try and get there Wednesday

The cemetery is in very poor condition and unkempt with a lot of vandalised headstones so may be pot luck if I find anything but I'll try 😉

Thanks so much, Davey. Even a photo of the main entrance is something. Don't spend too much time chasing what might be a non-existent headstone/s though
Cheers

Added: Perhaps Westgate Cemetery may not be the same one as Westgate Hill so hopefully my original post below may not be relevant and there may still be a chance of inscriptions being found. 

There is a book at Newcastle library giving the monumental inscriptions for Westgate Cemetery.  (Newcastle library has a good selection of monumental inscription books for particular sites/areas around Northumberland - this is especially useful when gravestones may have been cleared. e.g. many of the gravestones at St Paul, Whitley Bay for example.)

Unfortunately the people listed are not recorded.
 Only Robinson's are Christopher, Sarah, William, Ralph John, Ed.Daniel, William, Robert and Jane.  No Robertsons.

There is a William and Margaret McDougall.  Are these related to Isabella perhaps?

Thanks River Tyne Lass.

Think there is a Westgate Hill cemetery but not used anymore. Will do some more searching but I agree there may not be much available and probably no headstones

Many thanks for your effort for me

Went to Westgate Hill Cemetery yesterday as been very ill with this flu bug going around thus the delay lol
It's in a very poor state, I had a good look around once I stepped over the junkies lying flat out stoned. Nothing to report I'm afraid and with it being such a dodgy area didn't really want to get the camera out lol sorry hun
Have attached a photo of the entrance
