Ashburton Guardian = Death Notice
« on: Friday 18 May 18 03:14 BST (UK) »
Does any one have access to the "Ashburton Guardian" and would be able to send me a copy of a death notice that was published on the 16th May 2018?
Will PM the name if anyone can help.
Thank you
HeatherR

I have found the library to be very efficient and prompt so you may be surprised and receive an early response.....

Sure is, don't think I have ever waited three weeks, usually I have had a response within three days.
