My 3rd Gr Grandfather was THOMAS BICKER 1789-1822 His abituary may have been in the newspaper.He was gamekeeper to Prince leopold George Frederick of Saxe Coburg Saalfield who later became King of the Belgium's.His death was 19.7.1822 and being a servant to the Prince could have recorded in the local paper.Esher.Could any one look this up for me.
Hi Sylviao, I've just tracked down a Surrey newspaper for 1843. You need to go to the British Library website (just type in British Library on your search engine) and check the names & dates for the Surrey newspapers. The newspapers covered counties so they were not specific to a locality. Once you've found what you want it will take a personal visit unfortunately to search the paper. Jane
Tried to type in web page without the Google part but it was rejected, but if it wont open this is what it says.
