This entry, extracted from the Lowick parish burial register, which included Bowsden, refers to Hugh Gervin. Hugh died on the 2nd September 1806 and was buried on the 4th September aged 52 years.
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 Lowick parish are deposited with Northumberland Archives Service.
