Sheila if you cant find any photos online go to the library & have a look at Catherine Cooksons book 'My Land of the North' which has some great photos in. Georgina.

Great idea Teresa and a resource for the future without a doubt, but can't see anything for Jarrow! Thanks for trying Sheila

Does anybody know of a good website with images of Jarrow in the nineteenth century? I need some images to illustrate a family history project, but the only ones I have managed to find myself are 1920s or later, which doesn't quite fit the bill. Thanks in anticipation Sheila
