Hi Louise

Welcome to RootsChat.

I have no connection with Millers/Arnell. I photograph and transcribe gravestones as a hobby. I feel that the photo I have for Eleanor Miller is not the daughter of your Joseph, the sums don't add up. You say your Joseph died in 1844 and that would have made him 85 when the Eleanor I have was born. Her grandfather perhaps. I fear there will not be a gravestone for Your Joseph. You are more than welcome to any photos I have for Millers/Arnsell

Hi Gary, Thanks for your quick reply. You're right Eleanor is the granddaughter of Joseph (c1759) her father was also called Joseph (1806) and in my haste to reply I got them muddled ! Thus far I have drawn a blank regarding Joseph 1759, I have been in touch with the archives etc but all records regarding inmates no longer exist. I did get a copy of Joseph's death certificate though which is how I made the link to the asylum. I would be really grateful if I could have copies of any Arnell/ Miller headstones you have transcribed/photographed. Shall I send my email address - I'm not really sure of the best way to do it ?! Thanks again and look forward to hearing from you soon. Louise

Hi Gary. I'd like to ask for any photos of the gravestones in St John's, Sheriff Hill. On the occasional visits back to gateshead, I've always visited St John's and taken some photos. the two family names I'm interested in are WALES and HALL.

I have photos of Robert W. WALES d. 1946, Matthew WALES d. 1966 (and his wife and daughter), Joseph Foster WALES d. 1933 (and his wife). The only HALL photo is Henry HALL d. 1984, but no relation, but not my relation.

I have met every Rector of St John's since 1947, up until Rev Tully left, and even had our Rector from Texas go and give a service there.

My e-mail is (*)
Gratefully, Rob HALL, Katy,  TX

Hi I am looking for information on any Goodfellows or Davidsons buried in St Albans, Windy Nook.
In particular my G/ Grandparents Matthew Goodfellow b1867 & Frances Goodfellow b1871 
Also my G/Parents William Francis Davidson b1898 d1941? & Ann Catherine Davidson (nee Goodfellow) b 1903 d1939?.

 My mother seems to think that at one time there were gravestones for them in St Albans but they have been removed (possibly water / flooding damage)
Any information would be most helpful
Kind Regards
Ian

Hi Ian

Welcome to RootsChat.
No joy with your Matthew & Frances Goodfellow at St Albans.
I have a photograph for John Goodfellow died 1878 aged 43 & his wife Ann Catherine died 1904 aged 71.
There are 3 stones for Davidson's at St Albans but none of them for your William & Ann.
There are a few unreadable stone at St Albans.
An index of all available stones can be found here http://www.rootschat.com/links/072c/

Hi Gary

Thanks very much for your quick reply and the link to that excellent site. I have ordered some images to see if i can glean anything from them.

Did my mention of headstones possibly being removed mean anything to you (ie do you think that it was possible) and if so do you have any idea who I could contact to find out more. Apologies for all the questions but I really am a novice at this

ps I have converted the list of St albans headstones into an Excel  spreadsheet for easier reference - if a copy would be of any use to you please let me know
Kind Regards
Ian

Hi Ian

The link I gave you  is just an easy way for people to check out what is available. It started out life as an excel document  it took sometime to compile . I will email your images very soon.

Gary
