Photos I have taken on my visit to Amble East Cemetery at Easter 2010:
Plot list for Amble East Cemetery
During my Easter 2012 visit to Northumberland Archives I found a file (Misc 94) with a list of plots in Amble East Cemetery. This has proved very useful as many of the headstones are illegible or removed. The burrowing bunnies and ravaging coastal winds have taken their toll. Below is a list of the cemetery’s residents that I can claim as part of my tree:
Name | Age | Buried | Died | Plot |
Sydney Crackett | 23 | 11 Apr 1942 | Beverly Base Hospital | B/22 |
Margaret Henderson | 58 | 11 Feb 1895 | Henderson St. | O/12 |
Annie Turner | 16 | 11 Jan 1903 | Queen St. | B/03 |
Barbara Turner | 60 | 19 May 1901 | Queen St. | B/01 |
Eleanor Turner | 6w | 3 Aug 1889 | Amble | B/02 |
George Murray Turner | 91 | 24 Nov1952 | Percy St. | B/22 |
George Murray Turner | 9w | 22 Feb 1885 | Amble | B/02 |
Sarah Ann Turner | 80 | 17 May 1941 | 53 Wellwood St. | B/03 |
William Robinson Turner | 43 | 7 Aug 1882 | Amble | B/01 |
Mary Webb | 33 | 1 Mar 1902 | Radcliffe | Y/154 |
Margaret Stavers | 82 | 15 Nov 1889 | Henderson St. | S/78 |
Thomas Stavers | 32 | 19 Mar 1886 | Henderson Buildings | U/72 |
Ralph Smith | 63 | 29 Oct 1962 | Ponteland | B/21 |
I expect to be able to tie in quite a few more of the Hendersons and Olivers on the burial list too, but that needs more work to figure out who is who. It is also possible that several of the Buddles, Ormstons, Rutters, Smailes, Spears, Smiths, Taits/Tates and Thorntons on the list may be relatives of mine, so you can expect the above list to grow.
