Newspaper article in June 1956 in Colchester
« on: Sunday 11 November 18 06:25 GMT (UK) »
I have three members of the same family who all died on the same day in June 1956 in Colchester Essex.  Could some kind soul have a check of the newspapers and perhaps identify the cause please.

They were Alfred Jesse Cleverley, his Wife Ann Elizabeth and their grand daughter Lilian Cleverley.


Unfortunately I do not have the day of the incident.

Any help would be appreciated

Amongst other things the newspapers are free on find my past this weekend Tom so you might be able to find something yourself.  You need to register.  I have had a busy time this weekend chasing ancestors.

Are you sure they died the same day? Was Lilian married?
