The Sad Tale Of Albert Henry Drabble

[Lensmeister]

If you have access to newspapers there is an article on Albert in Whitby Gazette 14 February 1890 with a picture.

I don't have access but I'll get in touch with my mate in Whitby and see if he can pop in to the library over the summer.

I used to go to the Newspaper archive in Colindale ... but no longer there

Quick turnaround (due to lack of refrigeration?).
Died on 8th February, post-mortem, inquest, burial on 11 February.

They don't do things as quickly nowadays!
