Heyme Gouldson car crash 1935

[mangouero]

I am trying to follow up on information concerning australian cousins who visited Cornwall (Truro) and London.

On the 1st June 1935 they were involved in a serious motor accident.

The information I have is a little sketchy. It appears that a Thomas Heyme was killed and a Mrs F.J Gouldson was seriously injured. The incident apparently took place near Frimley on the London Road near Blackwater.

What would be the best way of getting further info?

Local newspapers are probably the best source.
You could contact the RO & see what they have.

Thanks for that link. My problem is that I am in France and there does not seem to be much available on line.

He appears to have been born in Cornwall, so did they emigrate to Australia?

The Heymes did come from cornwall of the five boys born to John Heyme ( I think that three went to Australia)

I think the first thing to do is contact the RO & ask if they have newspapers from 1935.
As you have a date they may look it up for you.
They may also charge for this.

He appears to have been living in Islington from at least 1891 and married there. Do you need information or do you have that?
