I know from family research that there is an area in/near Newcastle with the name of "Walker", which is in the Long Benton area.  So the whereabouts of burials and/or cremations in the area are a bit confusing to say the least.. 

"Christ Church, Simpson Terrace, Shieldfield, Newcastle upon Tyne, was consecrated in 1861. While the church itself is located in Shieldfield, its churchyard is part of Walker Cemetery. The churchyard was originally 6,806 square yards but was expanded in 1864 and again in 1899"

Contact office in cemeteries or Archieves in City. Give name and year of death, exact date and month is possible. They are a mine of information and most helpful. Teesside/Cleveland area are brilliantly effecient and helpful; I found unmarked, communial grave site in minutes of asking. Most efficient! Well done.   Good luck with your search.
