Hi All,

Can anyone tell me if I can find any details about accidents at factories.

Fred Partington - born 1870 in Ivybridge - found him in 1871 and 1881 and 1901 census - but not yet in 1891.
He drank Vitriol (sulphuric acid I think) by mistake when young - from Allen's paper mill in Ivybrige - they employed him (and father and sister) till he died in Oct 1912.
Maybe it was not reported in those days - but thought it might be interesting to find if details handed down to me were correct!

Any help appreciated

Cheers
Keith

Hi Wendy

Thanks for that is does clear up a gap - and confirms he was a clerk -
non of this is listed on the FreeCen search for Devon which states it 95% done - so mine must be in the other 5%!!

I'm beginning to find that the details are more interesting than just the bare facts - now was he working at the Allen's paper mill like his father and brother?

Thanks again for that

Cheers
Keith
