Hi everyone,
listening to a family story, my gt gt grandmother, Mary Ann Wigley of Chapel St Droylesden, commited suicide:(
This was back in 1899 following the sad accidental death of her baby. I was wondering if anybody had access to the newspapers of the time, to either end this rumour or confirm it.
On the 1901 her husband is a widower and I have found a death for a Mary in 1899 and a death for a baby Thomas the previous year in Ashton Under Lyne. I have not ordered certs yet. I cannot find grave details either for her or her husband John on Manchester burials and was wanting to visit them next year. Any help would be much appriciated
regards Mike
