Yorkshire (North Riding) / Anthony Durkin and family - Middlesbrough
« on: Tuesday 06 August 13 14:34 BST (UK) »
I am excited to have finally located my grandmother's older brother Anthony Durkin after a long search. Anthony was born in Ireland but settled in Middlesbrough. He died in February of 1931.
I am hoping someone can help me find the burial location of Anthony and his wife Margaret. (I think Margaret died in 1944.) They married in 1901 and had a large family, some of whom died young.
The family was Catholic so I suspect they may be buried in St. Joseph's Cemetery or another Catholic cemetery in the area.
Any information about the burial location of members of the Durkin family, particularly Anthony and Margaret, would be most welcome.
I have another question as well...Does anyone know of a source of obituaries from Middlesbrough? I would like to be able to know more about the family than just the names and dates.
Since I live in the US, I would be grateful for any information from those more familiar with the area.
Thank you for any help.
