Hello llangatwg  :)

Local library can provide copies of newspaper reports for a fee but they would need to know when the death took place. Can you narrow down the deaths, according to Frederick's age, using freebmd?

Modified - Swansea library have the Western Mail from 1869 onwards so if the death took place in South Wales, you may be lucky.

Kind regards
Morgan
