M Inscriptions for Satley

[Rogerina]

OK Adam.  That's fine;  I was interested in burials of around a hundred or more years ago so have no particular interest in modern ones.  Thank you for your trouble.   Rogerina

Hello. Here are the inscriptions :-

To the memory of Martha Jane, the beloved daughter of Edwin and Mary Ellen Mitchell-Stirk of Satley,
who died January/11/1868 aged 1 year and 2 months.

In loving memory of John, beloved husband of Jane Howe of the Travelers Rest Inn, who died July/30/1903 aged 86 years.
Also the above Jane Howe, who died March/11/1919? aged 68? years..

There are no gravestones with Howe/Stirk.

There is one for Telford but it is way past the 1950's cut off date that I use for posting on the board.
The death of the person would have given her the birth date of 1925.
You can have it by personal mail if so required.

My Mistake on the Howe Stirk burial.

Hi Adam
noticed that you have a list of MIs for Satley and Lowes appears on list.
Is this Jacob Lowes of Steely Farm who died in May 1902 and if so could you let me have the MI please ?
Many thanks

Hello Phil20.No gravestone for Jacob Lowes. Just  a Stone for a Gertrude Helen Stewart daughter of Hobson and Margaret Lowes of Low Mill Farm, Cornsay who died 1897? aged 2 years.

Thanks for your swift feedback Adam
wonder where Jacob was buried ?
My knowledge of the local area pretty thin, but I think the family had 'migrated' north and east from Stanhope parish (where Jacob's gt grandfather Nicholas buried 1767,grandfather Nicholas buried in 1818 and father Nicholas in 1857 ?) towards Hedleyhope, Tow Law etc
Are there any published MIs for Stanhope ?
Regards

Hello again. Yes I have the inscriptions for Stanhope as well as the rest of the Dale. I had already checked for gravestones on all of them but there are no recordings of Lowe(s) left standing and readable.

Thanks for looking Adam

I did manage to find one for Nicholas (1753-1818) at Stanhope on this website but not for earlier/ later generation
