Whitehaven News Death Announcement for December 1969 COMPLETED
« on: Thursday 25 June 09 20:14 UTC (UK) »
Hi Everyone,

Have found a family scenario where a Mother age 80 & her son of 60 years old were buried on the same day in December 1969 at Egremont.  I don't live in Cumberland so what are the chances of finding any family announcements or accident notices in the Whitehaven News.  It just seems unusual circumstances.  Any thoughts appreciated.

Thank You.

I hope to be in the RO tomorrow - If you can send a pm of details you have I'll see if I can find anything.  I've already jotted down the burial (George Minnican), but as I'll only manage a couple of hours I can't promise a long time on the "News" as if it was an accident it may have been after inquest etc. so a gap between death & burial.
