Phoebe Hannah WARD - Loughborough
« on: Monday 17 August 09 16:38 UTC (UK) »

Is there anyone who may know about Phoebe Hannah Ward born 1897 Darley Dale, Derbyshire and died 24 January 1951 at the General Hospital in Loughborough.

Poor Phoebe died from "shock from burns caused by pouring paraffin over herself and setting it alight whilst the balance of her mind was deranged by ill health".

The death certificate also states that she was a domestic servant (cook-housekeeper) and lived 21 Far Lane, Normanton on Soar, Basford RD.

I have tried to locate newspaper archives of the time but have been told that they do not exist Sad
