this website is fab re mining in Northumberland

Cannot see Joseph Coulson's death on it's memorium section.

Cambois was a coal mining village from 1862 to week ending 20 April 1968 when Cambois Colliery closed. Seems the coal mine leased houses some of which were in bridge street so houses came with the jobs I guess . What a picture it paints in your mind of what life must of been like ....hard times !

I don't know if you are near Cambois but there's a dvd available re history of Cambois

http://catalog.sixtownships.org.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2&products_id=11

also you should take a look at this page, there are Robsons named and death details re Cambois colliery

I live near London :( when I was about 10 went went up to Durham and Newcastle to visit this side of the family. May have to plan a trip to the coal mine :)

Thanks again
