Coi Durham > > > Hello Peter, My ancestors moved from the "Wapping" Newcastle upon Tyne where they worked in the coal mines to Thornley, Easington and then to Houghton-le-Spring Co Durham (via South Sheilds) as the mines they were worked in Newcastle were closing and the ones in North Durham were opening up. I know this from the parish records where children were baptised and census info. I even found the deaths of a child in those records that i hadn't known about. > This is the link to records held by Durham County Archives, you can search them and pay for the records you want if you wish too. http://www.durhamrecordsonline.com/ I found it really useful to get an idea where they were at a certain time between the Census years. > I hope this is helpful to you. > Carole Robinson > > > > > From: [email protected] > > To: [email protected] > > Date: Thu, 22 Nov 2012 14:54:43 +0000 > > Subject: [NMB] Coal Miners = Hetton Le Hole, Thornley and Easington.
