Hi Jane & Cath,

Jane--I feel so bad for you that you got hurt in the process of taking pictures of your boy and only to have your newly obtained camera broken. Like Cath said, I hope you did not get a black eye!

Here's a bit good news! Like Cath guessed correctly, indeed, she was brought back to Yarm to be buried. Have details but do not know if we need a plot number, etc. Strangely, she was not in the same cemetery as her parents.

If both of you are set on going up to Yarm, do let me know as I have few burials in there.

Kind regards,

Tees

Hi

Face is fine, which is more than I can say for my camera    screen is completely broken inside so no more, I have been looking to replace it


Yarm is not a problem to me, just maybe have to do it on a different day due to my boys play football, cricket, soft ball, cubs/scouts and tennis so only have one night free at the moment   

Will pm about what day etc Cath

Hi Jane & Cath,

Jane, quite pleased to hear that your face is fine. Once again, I am terribly sorry about the camera.

I shall pm both of you with the details later on as I have to look for my burial list somewhere.

When you are able, take photo or two of the Railway Gate Cottage and the crossing.

Do have a good weekend! Appreciate your kind offer.

Kind regards,

Tees

HI
JUST A THOUGHT. IF YOU KNOW THE DATE THEY DIED OR THE YEAR. YOU CAN GET THE CEMETRY DETAILS FROM MIDDLESBROUGH REGISTRY OFFICES JUST ASK FOR BURRIALS AND GIVE THEM THE DATES YOU HAVE FOR HER. I KNOW YOU CAN DO THIS. AS I HAVE FOR A FEW OF MY ANCESTORES IN STOCKTON. AND SOMETIMES THEY TELL YOU IF THEY HAVE A HEADSTONE. AND ALSO GIVE YOU THE PLOT NUMBER. ALSO MY ANCESTORS LIVED IN THE COTTAGES. THERES WAS 3 RAILWAY COTTAGES. IF I CAN HELP IN ANYWAY. JUST ASK .BYE FOR NOW

The cottages mentioned are two cottages together I believe, one of which was rebuilt recently (the one closest to the railway line).

I remember watching it being built and thinking how good it was that someone had taken the effort to rebuild it as it had been originally intended.

You're right crispyrice, the one nearest to the railway line was restored to its former glory. I think you'll find it was quite a few years ago now though, time flies!
If I'm not much mistaken, the plaque says it was built in 1828. Can't look too closely as I've been driving when I've seen it and don't want to end up in their front wall! Will have a good look if I'm at the front when the crossing closes
