Hi Manga
This looks like the one in Brotton St. Peter
In memory of Hannah the wife of James ROBINSON who departed this life October 17th 1810 aged 56 years. Also of James their son who died Aug 17th 1799 aged 1 year and 3 months. Also of Isabella their daughter who died Aug 8th 1819 aged 25 years. James ROBINSON died October 5th 1843 aged 85 years.
There are a lot of other Robinsons buried there. Would you like details?
Cheers

hiya i'm going to brotton next week i'll have look for you then and see if i can get a photo, but cant promise anything, the old graveyard has not been well kept. The monumental inscriptions were transcribed in the 1980 ans some of the stones that were there we removed for safety reasons, which i found when trying to find some of mine.

Okay! Thanks for that I understand with graveyards its like that here in Sydney Australia, young louts destroy valuable history.

Hi I am related to James Robinson born in Brotton in 1800. His daughter Mary Ann Robinson was born in 1831 and she was my great great grandmother. If you are still looking for info I might be able to help.
okay thanks.....

I have some information I have chased up I only found the robinson from the gatenby in the middle names. A bit like a jigsaw puzzle....I would appreciate anything you may have, where are you located as I am in Australia, and I have only used Ancestry, and some other sources that are on the net, nothing like being there.
P.S I am related to William Robinson, who was born 1833, he was an accountant and builder as well dying in gaol in 1880 in which he was charged with arson and fraud. if you wish to email me my email is b_radio(at)hotmail(dot)com
Thanks
