Title: Memorial Stone
Post by: mettle on Saturday 29 September 12 17:26 BST (UK)
 At the cemetery of  Our Lady Seaton Deleval, my greatgrandparent Robert Brown and Hannah Renwick,the name of the mason was Oliver. Not sure if it said Bedlington or Ashington.   Does anyone have any information on a Stone Mason named Oliver.

You haven't mentioned dates. But, as a starter, from "Historical Directories"

History, Topography & Directory of Northumberland 1855
Bedlington - Stone Masons
Oliver Richard, and builder

(Richard is the Given name).

Can you provide a possible timeframe? Remebering any headstone/monument may not have been erected at the date 1st death recorded?
