Title: Newchapel (near Kidsgrove) MIs
Post by: goldie61 on Thursday 05 July 18 11:20 BST (UK)
Does anybody know if these exist and/or are on-line anywhere?
I have a Joseph Bainbridge buried 1st April 1807 at Newchapel, child of John and Mary. I have the image from the burial register. Unfortunately, although it is a printed register with a section for 'age', whoever filled in the register has omitted to do that on any of the burials as far as I can see!
There is no baptism for a Joseph at Newchapel as far as I can see. I think he was born many miles away, about 1792.
Mary is buried in 1848, and her age given as 80, (undoubtedly an estimate), so she might have a grave there too.
Just in case anybody actually has the MIs.
Thanks.

I have just had a look at the website for St James church Newchapel. They seem to have a facility for sending a request to locate a grave in the churchyard

Hopefully this link will work but if not you can just use good old Mr Google

Yes Hepburn.
That is the Joseph Bainbridge and father and mother JOhn and MAry I have.
It is entirely probable they moved from the North East to Staffordshire around 1800 - they are both coal mining areas, and I have another couple of clues that make this feasible. Just looking for anything else for more evidence.

Thanks for the link Chrissie. Have sent off a request to them.
Fingers crossed!  :)
