Rootschat researchers, I wonder if anyone can help with this one - I have very little information. I am trying to assess the status of the Victorian Coroner EB Reece. His name appears with great frequency in archived newspapers but I can find no actual information about the man.
I have found an old photo from the Western Mail, but that isn't much help in understanding who the man was. His name was EDWARD B REECE. I know he lived and was acting as a Coroner in 1875 mining disasters. I also know he was incredibly busy. Can anyone throw light on the social status of the Victorian Coroner? I know that earlier they were on the same level as judges and I have seen they had to be doctors or surgeons.
I simply don't know where to start ... and Ive been researching him as best as I can for weeks. Not sure anyone can trace a person with so little information- but someone in your team usually manages. Please try to find the Cardiff Coroner! Thank you so much. Normax
