    I don't know, but in case no one else knows, you might try Northumberland Collections Service which has a couple of catalogues - if you cannot find what you need on the catalogue, perhaps give them a call?

    An alternative might be to try a directory, maybe see if there is anything useful on the historical-directories web-site?

    Bullgoose,

    To expand upon what Geoffers has suggested you might also take a look at the division of the registration districts. There might be a clue there. It appears that there was been a big change in 1914.

    In addition, you might try asking the local government your question. I have found governments most helpful in cases like this because they too do research and have people that know where the records are. The city has a contacts page on their web site which you can find here.
