Welcome to Local & Family History in Gateshead.
We've got stories and photos about Gateshead which tell you about our heritage and you'll find lots of genealogy help here too.
You can send your enquiries to Anthea Lang, our Local History Librarian or take part in our online Forums and conferences.
We can't do all your research for you but we may be able to give you answers and if not, we can give advice and suggestions to help you. This is usually free but we may make a small charge to cover costs of photocopying etc.
If you are coming in especially to do research, it is always best to phone ahead. We can book resources such as PCs and microfilm readers for you in advance. Tel: 0191 433 8430/8422.
You can find us in iKnow, Gateshead Central Library, Prince Consort Road, Gateshead.
