Northumberland / Carr's House, East Denton
« on: Friday 04 November 05 17:17 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
I've recently found out that my great-grandfather's family were living at "Carr's House, East Denton" at the time of the 1871 census.
Could anybody advise as to whether Carr's House was actually likely to be a house, or was it part of East Denton?
I found "Carr's Drift" on the map of East Denton at www.oldmaps.co.uk, so I realise there's a strong possibility of a connection there and that Carr's House could have been close by, but if anyone has more definitive information I'd be very pleased to know.
Further, any info on "Carr", maybe he was the owner of the mine, would be very welcome too.
Thanks for looking, best regards, Paul
