My grandfather William Penson died in an accident in the docks, not sure which one, on the 6th March 1922, aged 44. I was just wondering if it would have featured in one of the London papers at the time and if so which one would have been likely to have reported on it. Also if it's likely I would be able to find a surviving record and obtain a copy.

Thanks in anticipation

Linda
