Hello Dorothy,
I very much enjoyed reading your article on Preston Village.
My mother was born in North Shields,and her sister Joan( my auntie)was married to Davey Nessworthy.
Much to my delight, their address was also Roseberry Lane, which I remember well...especially the outdoor flushing toilet which I broke many times, while yanking too hard on the pine cone/chain.
This style of washroom, was quite a novelty for a young Canadian girl.
So many memories of such a wonderful part of Northumberland.
Kind Regards
Pam

Currently writing a wikipedia page about William Harold Craxford, and this website was a big help!

I googled Queenie Pinn who was a distant cousin of mine, and got a hit on this website!
I believe my grandfather (who was orphaned as a child) lived with or under the care of the Pinn family in the early 1900s. If any living descendant of hers knew more about the Pinn family I would love to be in touch!

What a find your website is - fantastic amount of information.
I found it when searching the village of Gretton which is where my Tee-Boon line originates from. Imagine how thrilled I was to find my family on your tree. I am from the line of Thomas Boon (Person ID120295) who is my 3 x Great Grandfather my 2 x Great Grandfather was his son William Tee Boon and my 1 x Great Grandfather was his son Robert. Thank you for the additional snippets of information I found on your charts.

Hi,
My book, A Challenger's Song, is due to be published on 9 December. I drew heavily on Joe Matkin's letters. My great grandfather was a stoker on Joe's ship, HMS Challenger. I'd very much like to contact the Matkin family. Could any readers help me?
Thanks, Philip Pearson

Frederick George Matkin had only one son with Lucy Ellen Platt, Frederick. The sentence " A second son, Charles William, was born in 1925." is incorrect. There were two daughters though Lucy Mary Stone born 1918 (died Mission Viejo, California) and Dorothea Bugslag born 2020 (died 1981 Victoria, BC Canada) Frederick George also had 2 sons with Sylvia (Scott) William and Robert.
Thank you, Janet. Duly noted and the text of the article edited

Brilliant site for research. My mother gave me some old family photos and I started doing some investigating into her family tree - Tilleys from East Langton. Even found my grandfather's brother's grandson in Australia who came over to visit us but so far they are the only ones I've found. And I found quite a few skeletons in the cupboard from my grandad Jack Tilley in Algiers during the war quite a shock. Please keep up the good work and I will be a regular visitor to your brilliant site
