Just for future reference;
"History, topography, and directory of Northumberland, comprising a general survey of the county, and a history of the town and county of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, with separate historical, statistical, and descriptive sketches of the boroughs of Gateshead and Berwick-upon-Tweed, and all the towns ... wards, and manors. To which is subjoined a list of the seats of the nobility and gentry" (1855):
Castle Ward,
page 428
Morpeth Ward,
page 706 (East Division includes Warkworth Parish; 9 Horse and 20 Foot from above!)
Tindale Ward,
page 762
Glendale Ward,
page 675
Bamborough Ward,
page 559
Coquetdale Ward,
page 587
Redesdale Ward, no mention in 1855
And the prevously detached parts of Durham you mention:
Islandshire,
page 900
Bedlingtonshire,
page 895
Norhamshire,
page 931
Counties (Detached Parts) Act 1844 (7 & 8 Vict. c. 61) brought these into Northumberland.
Still no map.
