    3. I see that The Catholic Diocese is 'Newcastle & Hexham' so Haguldastensi may be a latinization of Hexham Rosemary > > So the text you're referring to is -: burial 12 Mar 1904 Aidani, Apud Ashington, Novocastrensi Et Haguldastensi ??? > This is Latin My Latin skills are rudimentary at best but my guess is -: Aidani = St Aiden's; Apud = at or near; Novocastrensi = Newcastle; et = and; Haguldastensi - I don't know but would guess it's another place. I think that it means that Emma was buried in the churchyard at St Aiden's, Ashington.

    3. So the text you're referring to is -: burial 12 Mar 1904 Aidani, Apud Ashington, Novocastrensi Et Haguldastensi ??? This is Latin My Latin skills are rudimentary at best but my guess is -: Aidani = St Aiden's; Apud = at or near; Novocastrensi = Newcastle; et = and; Haguldastensi - I don't know but would guess it's another place. I think that it means that Emma was buried in the churchyard at St Aiden's, Ashington. In my small experience, Catholic registers of this time & area are invariably in Latin & helpfully specify where the person whose funeral was conducted was buried. I think it would be surprising if CofE or Wesleyan registers were in Latin at this period. Rosemary Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2013 15:38:21 +1100 Subject: RE: [NMB] Emma Newman From: [email protected] To: [email protected] I know Morpeth is real. I have been there. It is all the names before and after the word Ashington that i am wondering about. If it is a Catholic burial then she is not my girl. As the Newmans were a mixed denomination. And were more likely to have used the church of England Or the Morpeth Methodist Circuit. These denominations are used for the Baptisms of all four children i have found so far and burials for Gladys and Lena. Thanks for your input most appreciated Kitty

    3. Hi Kitty Morpeth is indeed real & is, in fact, the county town of Northumberland. Or was when I was a little girl! Who knows what reorganisation may have changed. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morpeth,_Northumberland In passing, you may be interested to know that there is also a Morpeth in the Hunter Valley in NSW. There are a lot of Northumbrian names there - most notably perhaps, Newcastle. Associations with coal mining no doubt. > NEWMAN Emma 1 Morpeth 10b 291 > She may not of had her birth registered. > It is the place name on the Family.org that has me confused. > Is the place real or another concoction of the Church of Latter Day Saints > > > Below is from familysearch.org > Emma Newman > England Deaths and Burials, 1538-1991 birth 1903 > residence 1904 Hirst > death 09 Mar 1904 > burial 12 Mar 1904 Aidani, Apud Ashington, Novocastrensi Et Haguldastensi > This reads like a Catholic register to me. A quick check gives St Aiden's as the name of the Catholic parish at Ashington. You would no doubt be able to borrow the film of the whole register at a LDS centre if you can get to one. If this seems a likely match for you, then you have a good chance of getting a good deal of family info from the registers. Hope this helps. Rosemary AckroydMelbourne

    3. I am still trying to find the 3rd Child who died in my Newman Family. I have looked extensively on Free BMD and Family search. The St Catherine house records only go to 1900 here in Tasmania. I spent a couple of hours going through from March quarter of 1895 to December of 1900. And found no child that could match with a birth and Death other than Births of Alice May 1897 Frederick Ernest 1899 These two are from Free BMD. Lena Beatrice 1901 Gladys Nelson 1903 4 of the Newman children two of whom survived and two who died. Herbert, Doris Isaac. Dorothy and Lewis are accounted for. They either belong to other Newman Family members. With Doris Irene belonging to a Matthew Newman This leaves only Emma who has a death record (Information Below) And no Birth record. The Record from Free BMD is okay and very self explanatory. NEWMAN Emma 1 Morpeth 10b 291 She may not of had her birth registered. It is the place name on the Family.org that has me confused. Is the place real or another concoction of the Church of Latter Day Saints Below is from familysearch.org Emma Newman England Deaths and Burials, 1538-1991 birth 1903 residence 1904 Hirst death 09 Mar 1904 burial 12 Mar 1904 Aidani, Apud Ashington, Novocastrensi Et Haguldastensi Any help would be appreciated as I do not want to send for another certificate and the person on the certificate not being my Family. And idea there any other site that I can search for BMD records for the time period of 1895 to 1911. I have access to ancestry. Thanks to all who can help. Kitty Cambridge Tasmania

    3. I don't think this adds much, but the RC diocese which includes Newcastle is officially known as Hexham and Newcastle, so I'm guessing that the Latin represents that title When the RC hierarchy was reinstated in the 1850 there was an agreement that no RC bishop would have the same title as an Anglican bishop, so as there was already a bishop of Newcastle, the RC diocese was titled Hexham and Newcastle. Makes it almost certain that the burial referred to would be RC M E G -----Original Message----- From: Rosemary Ackroyd Sent: Sunday, February 03, 2013 5:21 AM To: [email protected] ; Northumberland Mailing List Subject: Re: [NMB] Emma Newman So the text you're referring to is -: burial 12 Mar 1904 Aidani, Apud Ashington, Novocastrensi Et Haguldastensi ???

Get the church record for this entry - it will probably give much more information that a comparable Church of England record - and see who the parents were.

The St Jude register only gives their names and their addresses as "Wellesley Training Ship" but St Peter's gives their parents' names and father's occupations, as well as the address "Wellesley Training Ship", so there were "links", at least, with South Shields. I assume the boys had been asked whether they had been baptised when babies and if they couldn't definitely say "Yes" then they had been classed as "in need" of baptism. However, it does also occur to me that perhaps those taken to South Shields were those whose parents lived on the south side of! the river and were therefore easily able to attend, if they wanted to.

    3. To add to my earlier post, I suspect the lamp standards went after Alderman were axed in 1974, the position of Mayor until then having been elected from the Councillors and Alderman - and very often (almost always?) went to an Alderman. "Lord Mayors are now chosen from the body of Councillors and appointed at the Annual Meeting of the full Council. In Newcastle it is customary for the most senior Councillor of the ruling political group, who has not already served as Lord Mayor, to be offered the position" says the council's website.

It originally required connections to the gas main, and later to the electricity main running down the road, so quite an expensive exercise for only a year. An economy measure during a previous round of budget cuts, no doubt. The lamp standards may have ended as scrap, or possibly stand in a former Lord Mayor's garden? Chris Morgan

Daughter Elizabeth, born 1824 according to census in Walls End is one example of their supposed presence there. But I can't see the name Golightly appear at all in the Bishops Transcripts for Wallsend.
