Go to South Shields library - fam hist section - phone and book beforehand - they have an excellent fam hist section. I have Jarrow relatives and was able to access a lot of info. Hope that helps. Metro station not far from library.

I would think wallsend would be covered by Newcastle[civic centre],or North shields,both p[laces having very helpful staff on hand.
Hey,we could possibly get hold of Ann,[darlo] as well ,get her and Jenny together and you have the makings of a great day .Fred

Oh and too late for a postal vote!

Hope you keep pally with the Hall Monitor lol, give him an apple now and then
Are you feeling comfy now, and sort of settled in?

LMAO yeah, it's ok, we have a guy in our block who is self-appointed hall monitor or something LOL.

Just realised our away time coincides with local elections first time I'll have missed voting. Will have to talk to the parents tomorrow.

Am off to bed now, shattered.

Have a lovely time Liz.
Don't forget to put your bin lid down before you go, close to your neck of the woods, isn't it? (the bin fine etc)

Lizx

ps coming for a coffee Ian? :O) or something stronger? ;O)

We have rellies further up from there and a deceased one in North Shields, which was the purpose of the visit. Been into Newcastle once and decided was never gonna do that again LOL.

With all the stress and upheaval of moving It had slipped my mind until mum reminded me today.

Easy enough to get to Newcastle via the metro.....lots to see...great place and the records office peeps have to be the most helpful I have known.

I wish I had known you were going sooner...would have met up with you.....Whitley bay is Ok...have a cousin there

Gah, didn't really wanna go into Newcastle if it could be avoided. Maybe I'll just email them about it instead, after all, it's pretty specific.

If we can agree a time and day then perhaps we could have a mini-meet?

yep, TWAS. Newcastle.

I live not far from whitley bay :-)

Hi all, I had forgotten that I shall be appearing in Whitley Bay for 4 nights from the 28th (next monday).

Anyone wanna meet up (Mau? et al) If so, where? As I don't know Whitley Bay very well. We're staying at the caravan park.

Also, I've probably asked before, but my head has been all over the place. Does anyone know the record office that would cover Wallsend (Hoping it's not TWAS). And I'm having a serious case of DeJa Vous so I'm sure I asked but can't remember the replies LOL.

Thankies,
Liz
