Do anyone know about the Railway Gate Cottage in Redcar?

Hi Cath and Jane!

Nothing new information from Jane Thompson's death certificate--same as stated above.

George Thompson's second marriage showed that he got married in St Peter's Church and address is simply noted as Redcar. It is clearly an Established Church (Church of England). He remained a gatekeeper.

Kind regards,

Tees

Hi Cath & Jane,

Glad it is within a walking distance from my couple's house.

Meanwhile, I got the reply from Ian.

He found a plot but it is not my Jane Thompson--here's what he said: We have a Jane Thompson aged 56, years interred in Redcar Cemetery, Date of interment is 20/8/1879.

She lived at the Esplanade in Redcar.

If this is not the right person she may be buried in Coatham Church Yard but i don't hold the records for this, maybe she is in St, Peters Church yard Redcar.

Your Information is correct with your Dates and place.

Well, Cath and Jane, can you make a tail or a head out of this information? 

Looking forward to your findings on my couple.

Regards,

Tees

hi tees
i can check st peters and christ church coatham they are in the library i only live over the road ,could it be possible that she was buried in the town she came from ,will pop over today and have a look i dont think she would have been in the coatham church as that was a different parish .think i will email that nice man from the council my mum has a cousin who was drowned at sea when he was 10 and we cant find his grave .

Hi Cath!

It is possible that my Jane Thompson was taken back to her hometown which is Yarm, Yorkshire.

If someone has an access to the BVIR (I think I got this right) CD, s/he would say yes or no.

I do not know if her husband was a type who willingly part with money on this kind of expense(s).  For he did not keep the children from this marriage, when he married for the second time. These children ended up with my Jane's parents (their grandparents) in Yarm.

Kind regards,

Tees

i checked the burial for st peter's and christ church and she isn't in either so my guess is she went back to yarm so looks like your not going to find her just yet  ,perhaps her family paid the expense to return her home



jane doesn't look like we will be grave hunting on tuesday now

Oh what a day I am having, been to a football tournament with my son, been snapping away happily with the camera, until whoops, a kid from another team kicked the ball it bounced off me face (ouch) and broke my camera  can you believe that   I am gutted as this camera was a present I bought myself with a long service award from my last employer.

And, now no graves to be looked for - gutted I am, mind you when I get a replacement camera, maybe we could have a trip up to Yarm, I can drive it's no problem.
