Death report in newspaper lookup- name and date given

[jacdee]

Hi,
Can anybody do a newspaper look up at the local library for me?
Henry Crowther died 15th Nov 1879 due to an accident at Usworth Colliery.
Can anyone look up a report of his death and/or details of an inquest please?
I'm not sure what the local papers of Usworth were of that time, possibly The Northern Echo? (i'm guessing, as it's the only one i've heard of!)

Thank you very much to any one who can spare the time,
Jacdee

Hi
I have just received Henry's death certificate, and it says the inquest took place on November 18th 1879. The coroners name was John Graham.
Don't know if this information would make the newspaper lookup any easier?

If it's of any help, the record of Mr. Crowther's death, aged 29, is on the following page;

This is the Durham Mining Museum site - the section devoted to individual pits - Usworth Colliery.
