Thanks for that, most interesting. I have to rephotograph that gravestone as my 1st attempt failed.


Re Germans; Unfortunately (for them) German crews that found themselves in Amble at the outbreak of WW1 were incarcerated!


Things must have improved quickly after the war though as I know my ancestors visited German ports on Amble boats during this time; sending postcards and buying souvenirs.
