Neil was born in 1970 in Scarborough in Yorkshire[1]. He was told that he was born in Yorkshire, so that he could play for Yorkshire Cricket Club when he was older. Those were the days when you had to have been born in the county to play cricket for the county (although to this day, he has never shown aptitude or interest in cricket!). The reality was that his parents, Bill and Celia had stopped in Scarborough for the Winter, after following Bill round the country for his job, as he inspected the quality welding of the national trunk gas mains being installed at this time. This meant the family travelling in a caravan for a few years, inspecting all over the UK.
In 1974, Neil's younger brother Ian arrived, so Bill and Celia put down roots in Eaglescliffe, near Stockton-upon-Tees. Bill at this time was working in Oil and Gas industry, spending time working in the North Sea Oil fields, again as an inspector of newly commissioned oil and gas platforms.
When Neil was around eight, the family moved to Sunderland, nearer to Bill's family.

I would to thank you for all your contributions towards the goals of the England Project during the past six months. We've achieved a huge amount during this period and we couldn't have done it without you and our other project members.
As the England Project Leaders, we are completing our six monthly check-in with all project members.
Are you happy to stay in your current project teams? Which teams are you most active in? Are there other teams you would like to join or become more active in?
Also, do you have any feedback on what the project is doing well and anything we could do better in the future?
Please respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message. I look forward to hearing from you.
Many thanks!

Thanks for checking in. I have had a lot on with work recently, so not had a chance to do much on WT tree lately, but am still interested in staying on the project.
Neil
I am sure you will be back when time permits. Regards Joan.
The United Kingdom Project has not been active since 2018 and we are now completely closing it down. We are removing all UK project badges. If you still have an interest in the UK and have not already joined another project, then you will need to join the England, Ireland, Scotland or Wales Project by answering one or more of their G2G posts. If your interest is in the British Isles and British Crown Dependencies and Overseas Territories, then please contact me directly.
Regards Joan

It's that time of the year again: check-in time! As England Project Leaders, we like to check in with you every six months or so to see how things are progressing. Back in May, we didn't ask for a response due to the rapid emergence of Covid-19 because we understood that people's lives were changing rapidly. While we are still living in a Covid world, we do need to hear back from you this time around
First of all, how are you doing? What are you currently working on? Are you happy with the team(s) you're in, or would you like to change things up?
Secondly, we're looking for some feedback on the Google Group and our Discord server. Do you use either or both of these? If you don't use either, why not? Do you have any suggestions on how we can improve participation and collaboration, either generally or for you personally?
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Lizzie, Amy, Joan

The Global Cemeteries Project is currently undergoing our member check-in and wanted to verify that you are still active and interested in being a member of the project. Are you currently assigned to or working with one of our Cemetery Teams? If not, is there a particular Team or area you are interested in participating with? I would be delighted to help you get setup in one or more of our collaborative teams!
We use Google Groups for internal project collaboration, so if you are not yet setup for access feel free to submit a join request and we will get that approved as quick as possible. We also ask that members check their followed tags to make sure you are following the correct project tag (CEMETERIES) so you don't miss any discussions in G2G.
Last, but not least, we would like to thank you for all of your contributions to WikiTree and let you know that any ideas or suggestions for improvement you may have for the Global Cemeteries Project would greatly appreciated!
I look forward to hearing form you soon!
Steve ~Global Cemeteries Project Leader
I understand if you need to take me off the project, but am willing to help if anyone needs help with cemeteries in County Durham or Leceistershire in England.
