Hi, im trying to find an incident - a man found drowned in a lock in grangemouth - in 1941. I know the exact date and time he was found but i wondered if someone could tell me what newspaper it might have appeared in?

Thanks
Alison

Hi Alison,

Here's a link to Falkirk Library - they hold past copies of the Falkirk Herald on microfilm. (This is the local newspaper for Grangemouth also).

I don't know whether they'll do look ups but it's worth a try.
