How would one get a coroner's inquest report from 1933?

[Paulo Leeds]

the death certificate says under informant "certificate rcvd from a J.H. Milner (Coroner for Leeds)

Best place to try is the county archives;  however the survival of reports is very patchy.

You might find a report of the inquest in local newspapers;  also held at the archives.

Just because the informant is a Coroner it doesn't necessarily mean there was an inquest. Unless it says After Inquest on the death certificate there won't be a report.

It says:

"Certificate Received from J.H. Milner Coroner for Leeds Inquest held 25th April 1933"

Try the British Newspaper Archive.  I just searched using Leeds Coroner's Report and there were a few entries that came up for April 1933.  I have been successful finding inquests using this Archive.

What are you trying to find out?

What was the cause of death?

If the coroners report doesn't survive and the cause of death wasn't newsworthy enough, then unfortunately you will be at a dead end.

The death certificate does indicate "natural causes" but interestingly the address listed in Place of Death is a pub.

I was hoping if there was a coroners report it may shed some more light on the events.
Why would the report not survive?

Not all reports are saved to archives. Someone will correct me if I am wrong,  but I believe Coroner's reports are the property of the Coroner and often destroyed after fifteen years.

I know of one case where the Coroner was a solicitor, when he retired and the practice closed a lot of material, including his reports, was dumped in a skip. I heard this from another Coroner some years ago, he had managed to retrieve the dumped reports and  had them in his own archive.
