Hi,
would you be able to look up William Joseph Barnes who died in 1928 in the kilburn area of Middlesex. He was born Willesden Middlesex 1889.......he committed suicide in feb 1928 and was a local baker.....an inquest was held, just wondered if it made the paper. Thank you for your help in advance, Stephen

Hi, would it be possible for you to look up a death for me. My great grandfather Richard Hetherington died on 26/12/1936 and I was wondering if you could look in the obituary column of the Liverpool Echo, or such, as I would like to know where he was buried, or cremated. Thanking you in anticipation,
Susan

Hi T, not sure about this one. A gt uncle of mine died in morocco under suspicious circumstances, he had only been in the country a few days, anyway my nan was called on to go and retrieve his body. His name was William david Edward Walker and it happened between 1945/50 and was apparently covered in the london papers of the time. If you can find anything, great, if not thanks for looking anyway. Regards Linda :)

Stephen - I am sorry for the delay, I didnt know that I had a request until I saw it today - had a look, sorry nothing.


Susan - Had a look, no result for him.. Sorry


Cath - I'm afraid that it doesnt cover Ontario, it only covers Alberta and Manitoba.. Sorry
