Hi There,
Only new at this so hope I do this correctly. I wonder if anyone visiting the Hampshire Archives and Local Studies, Hants Record Office, Sussex Street, Winchester would have time to check the Andover Advertiser for June 1967. I was given a reference by the H.R.O. (108A00/107) but not sure what this refers to.

A young soldier by the name of Michael Winnel died after being hit by a car at night as he walked along the Andover to Salisbury Road at Abbotts Ann on 16 June 1967. An Inquest was held on 19 June. I thought there may have been a report in the papers regarding this accident or Inquest.

I would be most grateful to receive a copy of any such article which may relate to this incident. Perhaps the library also holds a copy of this paper.
Thanks, from Australia.

Ellen

If no one else can help, I suggest you contact Hampshire Archives again, if they have a ref it would be to a document and they might be able to copy and post it to you.

Broad, Eplett & Pope in St Ervan/St Columb Major, Cornwall
Browning & Moore in Cambridge, St Andrew the Less
Emms, Mealing & Purvey in Cotswolds, Gloucestershire

Thank you.  I'm thinking of moving this to the Hampshire board for awhile but still reading up on how to do it.

Hi


If you want a post moved to another board you have to ask a moderator.
Would you like me to move this post to Hampshire look ups?


Regards

Hi Ellen

Have you instigated any further action with HRO since you last posted on here?

I entered the reference you were given on the CALM database advanced search and received this information which I presume is a finding aid for a bound volume in the archives:

108A00/107  Andover Advertiser  1967

That being the case, I might have an opportunity to fit in a search sometime this week.  I much prefer to view a hard copy than a film although I can get distracted by other articles in the process!  ::)

Hi Dee-Jay

No further contact with HRO.

Would be grateful if you do have a chance to check the paper.  I know what you mean about getting distracted.
