Send a message to the person who requested a photo of the grave monument of Ralph Hepplewhite with the following comment:
The Ralph Hepplewhite buried in Whickham Churchyard is not the Ralph Hepplewhite who was killed in the Seaton Colliery Disaster 1871. There were 2 of the same name both born about 1816, died 1871/72, one from Whickham and one from Washington. It is the latter that was killed. I am researching the miners who died in that particular disaster and am quite sure about this. I do not actually want the image but thought your correspondents would like to know about my research. Thank you for your website it is excellent.
