Does the cause of death on the death cert suggest suicide?

Free to search but you have to pay for full images.  You do get a number of free ones to start.
Lancashire Evening Post had a few reports of deaths in Clayton le Moors but as you know the name you will get better results. 🙂

I can't say for certain as I'm on Anc.
