The EMMETTS of DENT'S HOLE were well known in the 19th and early 20th Century as Mariners, Fishermen and Watermen on the River Tyne. They also at one time ran the BLUE BELL INN (forerunner of the later Blue Bell Inn on Shields Road) in Byker.
The Emmett Family continues to thrive (though not necessarily under that name) and there are descendants of Kit Emmett and Bette Masterman (to whom this site is dedicated) all over the British Isles and, at various times, all over the world.
If you are able to add any information to our Family Tree, or if you are related to the family, or have any stories to tell about our ancestors, please get in touch - we would love to hear from you.
