Hi You could post the picture here someone might recognise the school for you. Not sure if Teesside archives holds any record's but you could try searching their online catalogue

Stay safe

Thanks Ive tried Google

Went down lines of Miffy been nickname for SMITH, as there used to be a road sweeper in the village I was brought up known as that!

I believe "MIFFY" is male as leaving Boosebeck for Goldthorpe, meant moving away to work in the Yorkshire coal mines as several others did

Thanks for your input

Gone down the lines of Patrick or Patrica

Locally there are a few options for burial.

I have searched Redcar & Cleveland Cemetery index online but did not find a possible match.

Boosebeck Cemetery was not opened until 1930. Do not have access to Boosebeck Church burials.

In 1911 there is a Grainger family living at Margrove Park.

Thanks for your input

John

In 1924 William Rowbottom writes "Young Grainger and family went to Doncaster" which probably of the same family.

Yorkshire (North Riding) / "Miffy" : Diary of a Cleveland Miner
« on: Monday 05 August 19 12:56 BST (UK)  »
Hi

For some years I have been researching the "Diary of a Cleveland Miner" kept by William Rowbottom an Ironstone Miner and resident of Margrove Park & Charltons Terrace and Boosebeck from 1873 to 1927.

The source is a transcription of the diary's entries published in the Cleveland Standard of Jan 28th 1939. There are over 230 different surnames involved.

A final few entries still remain stubbornly unsolved. As a final attempt to try and solve them I have turned to the good folk of RootsChat who may cast a new set of eyes over them and help me complete my research. I have tried all the usual available resources that I have access to currently.

29th September 1924 Miffy left Boosebeck for Goldthrope

Many Thanks

John
