Are those dates birth dates?
Assuming they are -
Do you know when or where abouts they died? Are they stil alive on any censuses?

Jacques - what are you hoping to find then?
There are no death registrations at that time, all you can hope for is to find record of a burial, and you already have the location ....

The burials can be found on the search labs site, http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=waypoint;s=waypointsOnly;c=1309819;w=0
and simply reveal the dates of burial (which you already know) and the places where George and Frances were living when they died.

What more are you hoping to find?

Thanks everyone for your time

Yes I have Death and Burial dates given to me a while ago, but have no idea how they came by them.

Thought there may be an address they were living, could even have been in castle accomodation , as George worked at the Castle for 35 years before his death.

Many thanks

George was living at The Porter's Lodge, Alnwick Castle at the time of his death in 1814.
To see the record use the link I gave above.
Click on Northumberland, and then on Alnwick 1777 - 1890.
Enter 356 in the box marked image and press the retun key.
You should then see the relevant portion of the burial register.

Frances was living at Bailiffgate. Enter 397 in the 'image' box to see the relevant page.
