PS: Where was Camp Cottage do you think? ADDED: Can see daughter Jane, mentioned on the MI, living at Camp Cottage, Longtown, Cumberland in 1881.

Camp Cottage was in the parish of Kirklinton, according to the parish registers, though I'm not sure exactly where

Thanks  Just added some more detail to my last post.

This may be John Snr's death reg, showing as aged 78 rather 79?

John Graham, 78, 1st QRT, 10b/302 Longtown.

I am not sure if this John and Jane graham are the ones I’m looking for they weren’t farmers
John and Jane only had 3 children as per the census states they never lost one but it could be wrong
John was born 30th nov 1823-hallfoot kirklinton
Richard was born 15th dec 1833-mossedge died 8th dec 1917 ( my 3rd grand father)
Jane  was born 24th sept 1837-joestown
Census lived in kirklinton in 1841
Census 1851 moved to Castleton lived 46 north hermitage street he was grocer and mealdealer and I am sure he was also a carrier when he first moved there

Is the grave stone for John and Jane the farmers in Castleton or my relations , can you tell me where abouts it is too or is it a transcript .  I have tried in the past to get info from newcastleton but never heard back from them
Kind regards x
