This entry, extracted from the Bywell St. Andrew parish burial register, which included Stocksfield, refers to James Stephen Knott. James was buried on the 10th December 1889 aged only 1 month.
When a person is buried an entry is made in the burial register. Of particular interest are the burial registers of the period 1798-1812. These are known as Bishop Barrington registers. Shute Barrington, Bishop of Durham, ordered that additional information should be recorded, for example, a person's age and occupation when they died. Burial registers of Bywell St. Andrew parish are deposited with Northumberland Archives Service.
