Newspaper death report lookup Completed
« on: Sunday 27 February 11 17:07 GMT (UK) »
Hi
I am looking for a newspaper report on the accidental death of my G grandfather.  Or any newspaper  obituaries about him.

Francis Stewart age 71 fell into the dock and drowned, at Barry Glamorgan on 25 July 1910.  Foreman Plate layer of 26 Phyllis Street Barry Island.  There was an inquest on 28 July.

any help would be very much appreciated.

Oops!   I meant to put 1910 in the request! Thanks for the heads up, I have corrected it now. :-[

Hi Ricky,

I have found 2 small reports - 1 on the death and 1 on the inquest - in the Western Mail.

If you PM me with your e-mail address I'll send you the clippings.
