Surety?

I went to Gateshead Library last week, but it is being refurbished and most of the records are being held in storage; although if you know what you want they can get it with 24 hours notice.
I went to Durham County Hall yesterday, but merely confirmed what you have already told me. County Hall have the document about the workhouse, but someone was using a laptop transcribe the whole book and I  will have to go back when the document is available. I intend to go to Newcastle Central Library where there will be documents relating to Heworth.
I found a site listing burials in CLS, Pelton, Sacriston & Lumley which may prove useful to anyone who dosen't know about it.

Hi just found your chat about Isabella Dickinson. I have an Isabella Dickinson marrying my 5x grt grandfather he had lost his previous wife although at what date I haven't found as yet. Isabella is in the 1841 census living in Chester Burns, Chester le Street. She is 80yrs old and a widow by this time she is living with Isabella and John Minto who are her step Grandchildren. John and the younger Isabella are cousins. I believe that Isabella died in June quarter of 1847 death registered in Chester le Street. I hope this helps although you probably have found this info by now.

Hi Melanie,

It looks like neither Arnison nor Hurley have been on rootschat since 2012 but if they still have the same email addresses then they should receive notification that you have posted to this thread.
