Hi everyone,I`m new here 
I was just wondering if any of you know anything I need to know,What it is - is I live in Hemlington,Middlesbrough and am investigating my home and the area,I have been told by 2 people that the land were we live was a graveyard years and years ago,But I have been told when enquiring in the main library in Middlesbrough & Teeside Archives that there was no graveyard and that it was just farmland and fields.I got a map yesterday of the area in the 1853 time era and there was`nt anything on,but I guess it is possable it could have been before that,maybe even the 1700`s or further back,Do any of you know if there was a graveyard on the Hemlington land,All help and information is greatly appreciate,Thank you.
