James Amour, back shift Overman at New Hartley Colliery in January 1862. Trapped underground along with his 14 year old son & 197 others until they died from carbon monoxide poisoning. James held a prayer meeting underground whilst waiting to be rescued. We know this as he scratched details on a tin that was found with his body. This pre-1862 picture is one of the earliest if not the earliest photo known of a colliery official.

The intact gates & iron railings at Westgate Hill cemetery of 1829, Newcastle & photographed in November 1941.

His monument in @nclcathedral (just near to the house where he was born in fact) is so moving. ‘A pious, just and exemplary man.’

Delighted to be helping @kmerrin and team with this campaign. Cuthbert Collingwood was a real hero - and a proud son of the North East - and it would be fantastic to display the flag he boldly flew at Trafalgar at the @Discovery_Mus in his home town bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
