Wrexham Advertiser
« on: Wednesday 01 August 12 20:34 BST (UK) »
I've heard several references to events reported in the Wrexham Advertizer.Does anyone know how up to date the "online" editions cover?

Looks as if you might have to go to Wrexham Library and use a microfiche reader  :-\

Would the event have been uniquely reported in the Wrexham Advertiser?Other papers pick up stories and report them.While the Wrexham Advertiser coverage stops at 1900 as quoted some other papers are available from 1935 in the British Newspaper Archive.

It concerns a suicide apparently off the "Eglwyseg" rocks near Llangollen.

Not to worry Roger,thanks for looking anyway.I would normally post a name but as it is perhaps a delicate and complex matter I can't!
