Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / 1938 aug/sept Hebden Bridge paper look up
« on: Friday 07 October 16 13:02 BST (UK)  »
Is anyone visiting the library at Halifax anytime soon and would be able to help me?
I am looking for any information on a burial in Heptonstall Church in Aug 1938 for a Clara Heafield who died on the 5th of Aug 1938 in Hebden Bridge. I am hoping that the Hebden Bridge newspaper would contain a list of mourners in the acknowledgement section or death section?
Many thanks
Helen
