Hi, I am researching a member of my husband's family who died in ww1, on the 08/08/1918.  His name was john thomas bashford from middlesbrough and his parents were edward and mary bashford. Would anyone know how i could ind an article in the local or national news that might give us some more information.  I am assuming that he owuld have been mentioned in at least the local news.  Anyone got any ideas?
