Title: (Completed)Burried his wife but she wasn't dead
Post by: Martin A J on Tuesday 19 May 09 16:57 BST (UK)
George Hollingsworth living in Scunthorpe 1902 - 1955 supposedly went to prison for fraudulently borrowing money to bury his wife.

Fraudulent because his wife was alive and, I suppose, kicking.

I guess this would have been sometime in late 1920's early 30's.

Has anybody got access to any court records for that period or maybe the local press?
