Now I've got it! we're discussing this in two different places!

If Nr. 1 is Barron Smith in this photo then he is also nr 15 in the second photo for this band.

I've no idea who Joe Jones is but he's shown as nr 16 in this photo.

Time for bed. My head's hurting!
 

 

I know what you mean - I should stop trying to multitask, my gender can't really do that

@Canny lass - after many comments and confusion on the Facebook Past Times History group Nicola Ternent commented :-  Right apparently Biff Smith is 1, Jackie Appleby is 7, Tommy Percy 19 and Joe Jones has told me that Joe grant was solo cornet but Joe Jones is not in this pic.

Names from David Dickinson & Micky Young added to No 2,  9 and 13.

@Canny lass - I will have to be more patient, looks like I jumped the gun. The photo was posted on the Facebook group, by John Dawson, yesterday so I add mine, with a few names. Loads of members commented but a couple kept contradicting each other and unfortunately I missed a few of the comments (on Facebook  it doesn't show all the comments once it reaches a certain number it only shows the subsequent comments and then you have to click on a link  - 'View nn more comments'. I have  asked then to check and I will update, when I think they have finished - my fault I was too hasty

Previous update wrong - No 1 is Joe Grant.

No 1 is Barron (Biff) Smith not No 9.

No 26 names as Jeff Howe by Nathan Barnes of the Facebook Past Times History group.

No 12 named.

@Tonyp - on the Durham Mining Museum site they keep a record of all the pits in Northumberland and Durham. For each pit they have pages of info including a list of miners (that they know about) that were killed at each pit. The site is maintained by volunteers and there is one guy (cos I was once in touch with him) called the 'Web Master' who updates all the records. For each miner that was killed he creates an In Memoriam page with the info he can find about about each deatch. This is the In Memoriam page created for your grandfather.

1959-60 season photo from Sarah Ince and the names from the Bygone Bedlington Facebook members.

No problem @Jammy - names updated. Alan Scott on the  Bedlington Facebook groups where I posted the update photos thinks No 9 could be John Hamill, not Keith. What do you think?

@Jammy - '?' removed from No 26

@Jammy - No 29 updated.

@Jammy - names updated from your list. Did you mean No 2 was Jeremy Pattern? I have also posted the updated photo, on the Bygone Bedlington Facebook group, for No 7, Alan Scott, to see. It was Alan  who sent me the photo to add to the album on this site.

1963 - Class 3B. Photo from No 9, Arthur Thompson. Names from Arthur, me, No 1 Jim and No 28 Denise.
