Title: Grave at All Saints Churchyard, Rothbury
Post by: sundial on Wednesday 20 November 13 21:32 GMT (UK)

Just wondered if anyone is able and willing to photograph a headstone known to exist in the churchyard at Rothbury. I have only just found out about its existence but I won't be able to visit myself until next year.

Many thanks

   That wouldn't be a Proudlock by any chance?    If so may I have a copy?   Some of my ancestors are on page 11 of the 1816 Rothbury Census - http://www.genuki.bpears.org.uk/NBL/Rothbury/Rothbury1816.html

    Funny goings on in and around Rothbury according to this census - e.g. see pages 83/84.

Thank you Malcolm33 for your reply. No, my ancestor was not a Proudlock. I don't actually have any family connection with Rothbury, other than that my ancestor died in Rothbury while on business there, and, as I have just discovered, he was buried there too.

Thanks again
