Hello, I'm relatively new to all this so please bear with me. 
My g.g. grandfather Frederick Rammell was born abt 1804 in Bredon, Glos. He lived in Upton Upon Severn, Worcestershire and died there in 1870. I have his birth cert and he died by his own act of hanging and it states that he was of unsound mind. I'm now curous about the circumstances and why.
It was also about this time his son, also Frederick Rammell born abt 1829 left a job as a hairdresser, his wife and an apprentice to move from Worcester to sleepy SW Scotland to work at the local lunatic assylum!?! It doesnt make sense.
Anyway, is there anywhere online or other I can look up father Frederick in the local newspaper. Or has anyone any bright ideas on where I can look to find out more about the circumstances of either Frederick?
Thanks!

I suggest you contact the Library covering the area in which he was living at the time of his death, they usually hold copies of the local paper.
As you state the cause of death, I think you meant to say you have his death certificate. This should show that the informant was the Coroner and the date the death was registered. If the date of the Inquest is not shown, at least you know it will have been within a couple of days prior to the date the death was registered. With this date to go on, it should be reasonably easy for the library to find the account in the paper and send you a copy for minimal cost.
