Durham / Re: Winterton Mental Hospital 1950s/60s - any ex-employees?
« on: Friday 30 December 11 17:13 GMT (UK)  »
I have re-checked my grandmother's death certificate. It states she died at Winterton Hospital on 27th February 1976 of Broncho pneumonia and gives the year of her birth as 1900. She was born Winifred Henderson in Jarrow and married a Hubert Huntley Fielding in 1917. It states she was his widow although as yet I have been unable to trace his death. One obvious mistake was in stating her maiden name was Coulson ,her mother,my ggmother married twice and Coulson was the name of her 2nd husband. This imformation was presumably by a member of staff who gave her address as Cornforth Lane Coxhoe. Is  it permissable to name this person?
Thanks for all the info.

I have only just registered with this site so hope I am not too late with this subject. I recently discovered my g'mother died in Winterton hospital in 1976, having always thought she had died many years previously. Her death cert gives the name of a member of staff who notified her death. Durham R O have no further records . Do you know if the graveyard is still there?
