Canny Lass that was brilliant. It was so well laid out I was easily able to follow the story. I cannot imagine how much time you spend putting it all together. Absolutely 10 out of 10.
Thank you! Nice to know you enjoyed it. They were an important family in Bedlington's history so I thought they were worth a bit of effort. My own family history research is at a bit of a standstill so I have some time over from that and I might as well put it to good use.
it is @James and I should have mentioned that when I first added the DMM site cover photo for the 'A' Pit - but I forgot.
There are seperate entries for the two in the Index for the DMM site but when you select either of the two pits it takes you to exactly the same page and the history for both pits is detailed.
If you scroll down to the section 'Gallery Images:' the DMM site does label the image as the Doctor Pit.This is the photo + info in the Gallery Images :-
