I wonder if some kind person with access to the Western Times (Tiverton area) around 1827 could look up an inquest for me? Elizabeth Axhorn was the 1st wife of Wm Axhorn (1782 - 1837) I assume her death might be prior to 1827 which is when he married Faith Rowe. The Western Times of 2/9/1837 gave the result of the inquest on Wm Axhorn himself: He was killed by a lightning strike & the paper said it had covered inquests on both his wives. Faith died in January 1837 when she dropped dead in a shop....so of course I am now curious about what happened to Elizabeth & the circumstances of her death. I live in the Midlands so there is no chance of me coming to Devon to do the research for myself, I really would appreciate any help to find what happened to Elizabeth Axhorn.
Many thanks in advance. Margaret Evans.
