Hi
I may or may not have had a relative who committed suicide, what is the best way to see if this information is true?
Thanks in advance

Purchase of the death certificate may be of help  :-\
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
Remember - "They'll be found when they want to be found" !!!

Hi, 1977
No information on our local newspaper archive site, this may be due to the death being less than 50 years ago.

I have had a couple in my family & they had an inquest which was reported in the local papers. Teh early ones were commented on in the burial registers.
