Death of George Watson
« on: Friday 07 November 08 13:42 GMT (UK) »
Hello Everyone
I have the death cert of my GG uncle showing that he died in the hold of a ship after a large lump of coal fell on him, would it be possible to find out the name of the ship?. His name was George Watson and he died 15/10/1887 in the London Hospital. An inquest was held 18/10/1887.
Thanks Geoff.
