1. My grate grandfather died at Eston Steel Works on the twelve of February 1892. The information I have regarding him is that he was born in Aberdare in 1830 and his first born was in a steelworks in Newcastle in 1858. I cannot find a marriage for him, however his wife was said to be Merry Harrison from Kirk-Merrington near Bishop Auckland. Another child was born in Spenimoor before I find the in Middlesbrough and another child born in Dundalk Mews. Other children are born in South Bank. At the time of his death they were living in Bessemer Street.
   So far I have been unable to find his burial place.
