finding out about Reports Birmingham Newspaper 1940's
« on: Saturday 05 April 08 14:30 BST (UK) »
Hello Folks,

I wonder if any one could suggest where i could  go to search for  Newspapers for Birmingham ...
I am looking for a inquest that occured in the 1940s and knowing that there is a rule on Reports for the coroners office for that time period
So hoping that i may find details in the local paper !
Many thanks :)

Hiya

They have copies of the Birmingham newspapers at Birmingham Central Library. I found information i was looking for in the 1930's it appeared in the newspaper on the same day as the inquest.
