Are you enquiring about Ryton Wooside? If so, it's Gateshead.

Gateshead Registration District

[JayG]

Or if you're talking about Woodside near Bishop Auckland then Auckland will be the district.

[kylejustin]

thankyou, im not sure which one it was, i just can't find some birth regs for a family.

[JayG]

If you give me the(re) name(s) i'll see if it's Gateshead or BA.

:D If you'd of just said Escomb that would of done it. Auckland is the district.

Woodside is now a terrace of houses at Witton Park.
