Hello,
I'm not sure how to go about finding an obituary for my Grandfather who died in Ipswich February 13, 1965. Would anyone be able to help and let me know who holds old newspapers from this time and how I would go about getting this information?
Many thanks,
Jilly

Hi Alan, Thanks for your reply. Yes, I'd readily go to the Suffolk Records office myself if I could 
It would be great if someone could do a look up there. I wonder if they have a look-up service there perhaps or if any of the old newspapers are kept in any libraries in the area. Trouble is, I'm not positive if there was any obituary for my Grandfather at that time, but I was hoping that there is as he became estranged from the family as he walked out on my Grandmother and children and my grandmother had declared that he was 'dead', being rather distraught. No one knew that he was alive until after his death which is sad and so it's a bit of a mystery his life after he left his family.
Thanks again,
Jilly
