Thank you very much for trying. The Swan's only lived in the area for a short time. aaaaaaathey came from Ireland and then headed for Glasgow. It's likely that they could not afford a stone.
Regards

Durham / Re: Whickham & Dunston Families
« on: Friday 25 May 12 15:14 BST (UK)  »
My mother's father was Joseph Heron, Emily's brother. He lived in Whickham all his life and died in the 1970s. His first wife died before the war and he remarried. My mother and her sister went to live with their aunt in Newcastle. I remember meeting Dorothy (Dora) when I was very young in the 1950s. She had a tight control on her sons, especially Tommy.. If you have not already looked the following site has a lot of useful information www.emmettweb.co.uk
It would be nice to know how far back you ahve traced the family. I have traced the Herons to Henry Heron (b1789) Wylam. Best regards
