Welch Family

A Memory of Craghead.

Does any one out there remember the Welch Family of Craghead. My great grandmother Rachel Welch nee Todd was still living there up till her death in 1944. Her husband Johnson Welch died from lung damage from the mines in 1908 and was one of the first buried in St Thomas Church Craghead.

The family lived at 12 Thomas Street, 18 Wylam Street and in John Street. My grandmother Madeline Welch married James Pearson Moore of St Moor and they migrated to Australia in 1926.
