Just a quick note wondering if anyone can help me ? Is anyone going to Bridgnorth Library during the next week or so, and if so could possibly do a look-up for me through the Old Bridgnorth Journals ? I am looking for the details of a suicide in Alveley of a Mr William Henry Steeton. Details I believe were published in the newspaper on 6th and 13th October 1888. I am interested in names and addresses of witnesses etc etc.
Strange co-incidences - (well, very spooky actually When I was a child, a old lady (who's family had lived in the Village for decades ) said to me one day, "someone killed himself in your house !" These words have bugged me for years ! Did this suicide occur in our back garden ? 
Any help much appreciated alveleyhistorian
