My great grandfather was Robert Dawson who was the chief engineer for the Cowper Coal Company in Blyth. He lived in Malvinas House. My Grandfather was his son John who became the engineer at Noth Seaton colliery.

Have you got my contact details?  I will be pleased to help as much as I can.  I've never used this form of communication before.

My great grandfather Robert DAWSON, was chief engineer for the Cowpen Coal Company for many years and lived in Malvins Close.  I have a copy of a photograph of the house taken at that time.

My Great Grandfather was Robert Dawson who lived in Malvins House Blyth.  The house was built and named by its first occupant Malvin who was a ship owner.  Robert Dawson lived in the house for about 25 years or more whilst he was chief engineer for The Cowpen Coal Co. until his death in 1895.  His eldest son Robert lived in the nearby cottage.
