Searching Rushton family history as my maternal Grandfather was Joseph William Rushton who was born in 1884 near Lambley and worked at Midgeholme Colliery. He moved to Brampton Junction possibly to work in another mine then left the area in 1906 when he was 21 and joined the Newcastle Police Force. |
