Family Tree, new member
Hi all
Was recommended to visit this forum(it has not disappointed) to find any information anyone had on the Craigs family? They lived in various mining communities in Northumberland from Newton on the moor, Bebside Furnace, Warkworth, and then on the 1911census lived in Brick Row. From this forum I have found that my great grandfather & great grandmother along with 3 other members of the family are buried in East Chevington Cemetery, was a burial plot record ever kept? |

And yes, I believe the burial ledger is retained at Woodhorn?

Bob, welcome to the site. Woodhorn tends to have maps of all the burial plots for our cemeteries. I know I've looked at one for Warkworth and Amble there, so I'm sure they'll have Chevington.
The Woodhorn staff are very helpful if you want to ring them or email. Their contact details in the introduction to the registers on this sister site. |

That's disappointing, the registers must still be with the local council, would that be Chevington Parish Council? Another source of information might be the local funeral directors? John Stoddart at Amble: 01665 712277 or the Co-op: 01665 710437.

One more thing Bob on your great grandparents, the Chevington burial register held at Woodhorn has the burial plot number next to the entry, so for example, I know my grandfather is in J047. It might be an idea to get this first before you approach anybody for a map of the cemetery.

Success the person responsible for the cemetery from Northumberland Council has come up with all the info I required, along with a plot plan and an overall plan showing each section.

It's not possible to put it on here without the council's permission, but how you communicate material between yourselves for private study is up to you
