Devon OBIT - Sergeant Major John HARRIS
« on: Tuesday 12 December 06 03:53 GMT (UK) »
Hi - I was wondering if anyone had records of old newspapers - My GG Grandfather was Sergeant Major John Harris and he died september 1908 in Sheldon, Devon. Family stories indicate that the King went to his funeral and I would like to find out if there is even 5% truth in the family story, I was hoping a funeral notice or Obit would hold some info.
Kind regards
Megan
