Durham Records Online additions

The latest additions to Durham Records Online (www.durhamrecordsonline.com):

Gateshead baptisms 1769-1812
9,517 baptisms at Gateshead St. Mary, covering 1769 through 1812, which includes the detail-rich period of 1798-1812 where all sorts of parentage answers can be found! Burials for this same period will follow in about a week. These are from a combination of the parish register and the Bishop's Transcript, for maximum detail.

Winston burials 1573-1761
834 burials at Winston St. Andrew in Teesdale district, from the beginning of the first register in Dec 1573 to the end of 1761, so we now have a continuous run of burials here for 1573-1845.

There are no burials recorded (or the register did not survive) between March 1619 and May 1627. There are also none shown in 1610, 1645, 1652, and 1753.
