St Peters, Croft on Tees burial lookup 1843

[broadysword]

Calling budding genealogy sleuths. I am after the burial details of a Richard Harland who died October 31, 1843. He lived in the village of Croft at time of death. My searches through the parish records for the area surrounding Croft yielded nothing. Unfortunately records for St Peters in Croft On Tees 1843 are not available online, unless someone knows where. I contacted the vicar whose parish covers St Peters concerning my enquiry but alas nothing was replied back. So I am looking for someone who is visiting the North Yorks County Record Office if they could do a lookup for me. I would be extremely grateful.

I live about 5 mins drive from the church and would be happy to look in the churchyard for any gravestone or memorial for you or make enquiries at the church.

Hi Greenvale. Wow that is so kind of you. I do know that the church has copies of the original transcripts but they never got back to me. Cant be precise that Richard Harland is there or even if he had a headstone, but fingers crossed. Thank you so much.

[Greenvale]

I would be glad to help. Unfortunately it will be sometime next week before I can get there but I'll do it as soon as time allows.

That's fine. Just glad of any help.
Regards, Andrew.

The records for St.Peter's are available on Find My Past. Richard Harland, age 75, was buried 2 Nov 1843, his abode is given as Dalton. His surname has been transcribed as Ruland due to an ink smudge in the original image.

[Greenvale]

Well done Angelfish. I'll still try and visit and see if there's a headstone or grave marker.

Hope you have more luck than I did with my Croft ancestors
