Obituaries (Benjamin Glover)
« on: Thursday 23 December 10 17:28 GMT (UK) »
Hello, this isn't exactly a lookup but I was just wondering if anybody knows the best place to find an Obituary of someone?  I'm interested in finding the obituary of Benjamin Glover in 1936 in Acrefair, Wrexham (he's my great grandfather).  I'm not sure what local papers would have been around at that time but any advise would be appreciated - thank you.

Regards
Linda

The local newspaper around that time was and is The Wrexham Leader.There was also the Cefn Chronicle which may have given his Obituary.

Hello  :)

If you contact the Wrexham Archives and Local Studies Service, they can provide a copy for a small fee.

Just to say that the Wrexham Archives ,  temporary location  in Bersham are closing today, and are reopening on Feb 14 2011 back in  Wrexham
This is just to let you know the reason if you don`t get a reply from them.
