Durham Lookup Requests / Re: George Batey

Hi Janis!
Thanks for the help! It's crazy, but my grandfather and aunt had some papers and birth certificates. I wasn't exactly sure where everything fit but you helped confirm that for me.
Turns out among other things, we have the original wood trunk my line of the Batey's came over to America with. There is also a church type book that listed all the kids that Thomas Atkinson Batey (A. was for Atkinson) and Elizabeth Batey had including the death dates for the children.
The document I found, which i previously wasn't sure where it fit, says that Thomas Atkinson Batey was born April 9, 1815 and died July 10, 1882. THEY WERE MARRIED March 25, 1838 in what looks like (writing is faint) Milburn Place, South Shields, England.
I'm new to this and not sure what sites to go to....where would I track down documents on Thomas Atkinson Batey and Elizabeth Batey from Milburn Place?
Thanks again! Before your help I wasn't sure where everything fit and you helped me put everything together!
Best,
Andrew
