Thanks so much for your reply about Headlam Street,  and St. James Church,  you have given me some of the information I was searching for so I can carry on with my research, on my Larkin family.

Kind regards

Hi Malshie,  I live in Norton which is not far from Tilery, Headlam Street was in Tilery but has been demolished,
The nearest catholic church was St mary's RC on Major Street, which is still there, the catholic school was next door and it was also called St Mary's(I went there myself) Middlesbrough Archives hold the christening records for St Mary's church, if you can give them a ring they will do you a look-up, if you can't let me know and I will book a microfilm machine and do you a look-up

Hi All

I dont know if this is good or bad news

Roman Catholic Churches
Stockton-On-Tees St. Mary Roman Catholic Church

The more recent registers (after the end dates below) are not in the Record Office and all enquiries should be directed to the clergyman responsible for the church.

Baptism 1783 1840 Only
This is what is held at Durham Records Office
and for this period it has been included on the IGI

Sorry

I think you may find the St Mary records at the Cleveland archives or is that Teeside
Archives. Adamand

Thank you to Slaw, The Vicars Wife and Admand in reply to my post.  Slaw that is very kind of you to offer a `look-up` for a baptism for me.  Although, it seems to be  I have to search Cleveland Archives or Teeside Archives, am I able to do this on line would anyone know?

Pity about Headlam Street, no wonder I could not find it on any maps!

With regard to St. Mary`s School would any record of pupils names be kept, going back to 1920`s?

Kind regards
Malshie

Hello Malshie. If you go to the stockton picture site. http://picture.stockton.gov.uk/ and type in Tilery you will see an aerial view for Tilery.
As you will know Headlam street was just off Tilery rd. It is on the top left of the picture. It is not the best of pictures for identifying the street but it at least gives you an idea what the area was like.  Adamand

Hello Malshie
I realise your posts regarding St Mary's Church and Headlam Street Stockton are quite old but I have only just come across them. In case you are still searching:
St Mary's Church was founded in 1842 and according to the priest last weekend (Feb 2011) the parish registers are now held in Exchange House Middlesbrough. (My grandparents were married there in 1919).
I have an 1899 and 1970 maps of the area and Headlam Street is in an area called St Anne's Hill running between Tilery Road and Talbot Street, parallel (to the east) of Norton Road. as the previous posts have mentioned this area was demolished in the late 1970s during the Portrack Lane clearance and is now in an area close to Routledge Road off the A139.
Hope this helps.
