Hi
Just a thought.
If he hanged himself then there would probably have been an inquest and that would probably have been reported in the local newspaper, so it might be worth contacting the local history section of the Central Library in Hull as they have the newspaper archives.

Thanks Bee, good idea.

I'll get my mum to pop in when she gets back off holiday. ;)
