George Henry French of Worthing
« on: Friday 18 March 11 18:54 GMT (UK) »
George Henry French (my gggrandfather) died on 15 Sep 1889 age 53 in Worthing.  He was a co-founder of the Worthing Gazette. His son Peter Ernest French died about the same time or shortly thereafter in Worthing aged 26.  I am interested in finding out if there was anything published in the Worthing Gazette or other local paper about their deaths.
Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

Hello Iceman!

I found this  http://yourarchives.nationalarchives.gov.uk/index.php?title=TRanscript_of_Will_-_Felix_Fuller_of_Worthing_(1861)

Looks like your George was Felix Fullers son in law
