Are you on Ancestry?.
I found this have you seen it? Article on Joseph Hoaen..
'On Saturday afternoon, between four and five o'clock, a shocking accident occurred at the factory of Sir John rennie, the celebrated engineer, situate in Holland-street, Blackfriars, by which a man named Joseph Hoaen, about forty years of age, was deprived of life. It appears that the unfortunate man was in the employ of Mr Downs, builder, of Guildford-street, Southwark, and was engaged in some works now in progress at Sir John Rennie's, and whilst in the act of raising a heavy piece of timber to the roof by means of a jack screw, when the screw by some means accidentally slipped, and, losing his hold, he fell backwards from the plank on which he was standing, and was precipitated from the second to the first floor, in his descent striking the back of head against one of the tye-beams with fearful violence. Mr. Downs, who was present, superintending the work, ran to his assistance, and found him apparently lifeless. A surgeon was immediately sent for, who pronounced life to be quite extinct, a concussion of the brian having been the result of the fall. The unfortunate man has left a widow and four young children.'
