I am looking for relatives for the Matthew's family in Amble who moved from
Newburn.  Also the Thompson family from Newcastle.

Welcome to RootsChat  :D

Perhaps you could provide names and birth places/years otherwise it will be difficult to assist you.  What time frame are you interested in?  19th century, 20th century?

The most common information available are births/christenings, marriages, death/burial and census records.  Many other records available as well.

Please note that RootsChat does not research living people as their names cannot be displayed.

Hi & welcome from me too

I have asked the moderator to move your post to the Northumberland board.

As Girl Guide has said - more info is needed.  To help you understand why - the 1911 census for Northumberland has 523 entries for the surname Matthews but a whopping 8,137 for the surname Thompson 😱😱

The 1939 register shows 467 & 7595 respectively
