My grandfathers name was Richard DAVISON. My fathers name was Andrew. They came from Durham and worked in the mines. I don't know if this is the same Richard but am just starting on my reseach on the family.

The above inscription is from the gravestone at St Mary's Church, Horton Road in Blyth, Northumberland, for Richard Davison Rhodes, his brother John and parents and sister Isabella. The children are my first cousins x 3 removed.
