Hi Grant, I don't know how much access you have to the Evening Chronicle but I am looking for an article in the ? personal ads from 1980's. My uncle Edward 'Teddy' Whitfield had died and his brother Billy was trying to find my mother Catherine McGarry nee Whitfield to sort out his will. I think it was around 1985-87. Are these types of things available online or does one have to visit the archives? Cass
-
Hello Cass
Copies of the Evening Chronicle are kept on microfilm at the Newcastle City Library Local and Family History which is at the moment in the Exhibition Hall at Newcastle Civic Centre. You would need to have a good idea of when your notice was published as in the 1985/87 period I think each film only covers 1 month so working through 3 years would take a long time

Hello Grant. I live near to Newcastle, So my question is, Do you have to book in advance to read the the microfilm or can you just pop in. and how far does the death notice's go back do they cover all of the newspapers ie journal, and the newspapers that do not exist to day.
I will tell you why I am looking for information on a John Rutherford who was Mayor in Jarrow 1895, he was councillor before then in 1884. he also was the landlord of the public house called the Turf Hotel in Jarrow 1881.I believe he could be a relative as as his nephew was called James Chandler Kilgour and both names Kilgour and Rutherford run thought my Rutherford line. of course I could be completely wrong. ;D but still it is interesting. I have also been told that Jarrow had it own local newspaper back then which I was given the name of but I have lost it it was on a scrap of paper :-[ :'(

Evening Chronicle Friday 8th July 1892 Page 2

Regarding the accident to Edward Tate there may be further coverage in more local newspapers some of which I think are kept at Gateshead( they have a list of what they have on their website) and South Shields Library I believe have papers for that area There may be more coverage of the accident itself

Hello Cherryberry
There is no booking for film readers at the Family and Local History Centre it is just first come first served if you have a look at the Newcastle City Council website under libraries there is a link to the family history section which lists the newspapers they have on film and as bound volumes. South Shields Library and Gateshead Library would I think also have copies of papers which would contain the kind of information you would find useful
Regards
Grant

Thank you so much Grant - this is my guy.

hello,
i was wondering if a death notice for my great grandad may be in the paper. ernest steel fairlamb he was born 16th october 1897, and was killed down allerdene colleiry on 9th dec 1940. apart from that i know nothing about him and just thought his death notice may of been published, or if anyone knows how or if you can get coroners reports that would be great.
thanks
-
Hello
I found the entry for Ernest Steel Fairlamb and also checked to see if there was any other mention in the copies back to the 8th December but found nothing else
Evening Chronicle Friday 13th December 1940
Fairlamb_ Low Fell, 2 Chowdean Cottages, suddenly December 9th, aged 43 years, Ernest Steel, dearly beloved husband of Jane Fairlamb(nee Johnson) and beloved son of the late Thomas and Mary Eleanor Fairlamb. Interment St Johns Sherriff Hill Saturday; leaving residence 2.45p.m. Friends , neighbours and fellow workmen meet at Church 3.10pm
Grant
-
On Durham Mining Museum www.dmm.org.uk/names I saw the following Fairlamb - not sure if he is connected to you
Fairlamb, John 33 06 Mar 1890 Blenkinsop NBL
If you look under mines you will see there are two Allerdean Collieries, one in Durham the other in Northumberland - it might be worth a look.

Hi,
New to the boards and I've spent the last few days trying to read the many fabulous posts.
I'm hoping for some help. One of my ancestors was a GEORGE BURN. We believe he died around March 1883. He was a Monumental Sculptor and he has some public statues in the Newcastle area. Having found some information in various books, there was apparently an obituary. Can anyone help me to find either the obituary or a death notice please? I can't access the Records Office easily due to work commitments. I've tried at Woodhorn but they didn't seem to have the main Newcastle papers.
-
Newspapers are at Newcastle Central Library, but as it is being rebuilt and is in temporary accommodation I am not sure if everything is available.
There is a link to obituaries in www,genuki.org.uk under Northumberland but the index doesnt start until 1885, but you might find something on it.

Hi Grant..would you be able to do a obit look up for me if possible please,the person is a George Hansler who died in December 1911 age 16 in Newcastle as far as i'm aware,sorry i haven't got an exact date of death :-\...if it's too much hassle not to worry..many thanks
Steve
-
Hello Steve
No luck with George Hansler the December 1911 editions of the Evening Chronicle do not seem to have been filmed as did the rest of 1911. You may get lucky and someone who is searching the bound hard copies may be able to find it for you.
If you know where in Newcastle he lived or which church he might have attended it might be possible to find him through the cemetery burial registers
Regards
Grant

I would just like to thank you again for your advise I have been down to the centre but unfortunately they didn't have the papers I was looking for, but I still had a very happy few hours looking though the hard backs of the papers.
I did find out there had been an out break of small pox at the time two of my ancestors died two in one family only a few months between them, this could have been the reason but will have to get the death certs to be sure.
I found it all very interesting. The way newspapers where written back then so different from to days. more factual less off the hype I thought . I then was advised to go to south shields library where I did find the Jarrow Guardian and Jarrow Express which were the local papers for Jarrow and I found lots of interesting information on John Rutherford, I knew he was a councillor I found the facts that he was mayor. So will be going back again as I only managed to get though half the year as I got carried away reading to many different bit of news lol
-
Hi Grant..many thanks for your help..all i have on him is that in the 1901 census he was living with his parents at 26 Yorkshire Street,All Saints,Newcastle On Tyne where they were down as boarders,whether they were still there when George died...not sure,but quite possible i suppose.
Thank you
Steve

Hello Steve
I did a quick check on Free BMD for Hansler deaths in Northumberland 1900 - 1920 there is Henry Hansler age 1 died Dec quarter 1914. If you think that could be one of the family I will try to find it. I will keep an eye out for the Hansler name when I am looking through any other records as well
Regards
Grant
-
Hello Grant...that could very well be one of the family..i have Henry down as being born Qtr 1 1913 Newcastle T so it looks very likely it is the family,as far as i know they were the only family of that name in Newcastle at that time(well i can't find anymore ::))..much appreciated..thank you :)

Hello Grant,
Any chance of a quick look for;
Mary Ann Bowles, died 8th July 1899, she lived at 'Fountain House' West Hartlepool.
I was given this information from the headstone. The 1901 census certainly shows her husband as a widower then.
Fingers crossed,
Regards,
kiwi

Hello Kiwi
Sorry West Hartlepool is outside the area for the Evening Chronicle .Try posting to the Durham board I have seen requests answered there for Hartlepool
Good Luck
Grant

Hi Grant,
Many thanks for your reply, will try the Durham board.

Hello
I see from Rootschat that you have an interest in Edward Tate - killed in a Mining accident
I'm interested what other info you may have
Edward is my Great Granddad - are you related in some way?
TIA
Regards
Peter
-
Hi Peter,
I am afraid you may have sent this query to the wrong person. I am interested in the Bowles family from Hartlepool. Long line of Drapers/Haberdashery, something that continued down to the present day.
Good Luck
Kind Regards,
Kiwi
