Burial of Jane Ann Straughan 1917

[River Tyne Lass]

I wonder if it might be worth trying Mayfield Cemetery in Cramlington or St Nicholas Churchyard?  Looking on Find a Grave these come up as relatively close to Dudley Cemetery. 
I don't know where the records for these two are held, though.  Hopefully someone might know.

Unfortunately she doesn’t seem to be in St Nicholas Churchyard, their burials are available online and don’t have an entry for her.

I’ll check out Mayfield’s cemetery. I was also thinking Horton St Mary’s churchyard could be a possibility.

Where did you find them online, please? I don't see them on Family Search

I found the church records here: https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/3742735?availability=Family%20History%20Library
They are transcripts, not original microfilm.

FreeReg also has St Nicholas burial transcripts at least up to the 1960s. https://www.freereg.org.uk/search_queries/65ec5a8cb620e0d6e268f40a?locale=en (example search query w/ ‘Bell’)

(These burials could also be referring to Mayfield, I suppose?). However I did find an another ancestor’s burial in both the FamilySearch catalogue and FreeReg transcripts who is confirmed to be interred in the churchyard.

How on earth did I miss both of those. I’ll put it down to a fuddled brain owing to a heavy cold

Their daughter Mary Arabella died in 1916 and is buried with William’s parents in Rennington, but also no sign of a Jane Straughan there. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/231688291/mary-arabella-straughan

According to Family Search Mary Arabella is buried at Stannington, not Rennington.
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QPHL-BJDV

The location would fit with her death at North Shotton, which was in the parish of Stannington

The inscription at Rennington is a memorial, not the record of a burial

So I think this has to be Jane Ann, also buried at Stannington on 12th December 1917 aged 46, surname mistranscribed https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QGR2-MKDF

This is brilliant! Thank you for finding her 

I had seen Mary Arabella’s burial in Stannington a while ago, but that with the Rennington cenotaph confused me.

One last thing, I was wondering could someone pop onto Ancestry and look at Jane in the 1911 census to see how many child she has had/how many died? I believe I may have found a child that died in infancy but the birth doesn’t show on GRO Index so can’t see maiden name.

I would do it myself but don’t have ancestry subscription right now.
