Heather: Further to my last message, in 1816 Robert Harle was of "Wallsend" and his occupation was "Corver" - that is, he made and repaired the corves or large wicker baskets in which coal was then transported from the face to the shaft bottom and then hauled up the shaft.

She is living with John Harle, 25, his wife Dorothy(nee Todd) 24,and their son John. I have found John and Dorothy's marriage in N on T in the April, May, June quarter of 1839, but have no more particulars than that. I can find no more details about John and cannot fit him into the family at all. Help?? Heather Brain Mel. V.A .. Please remember to snip most of the earlier message before you post any reply......
