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?

Hello Bob, pleased you found the site and are finding it interesting
Hope you will get plenty of information from the members, John

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.

Thanks to both John@the Drift & janwhin for the above info. Have given them a ring, but unfortunately they don't have burial plot records for Chevington.

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.
