Hello folks, is it possible to aquire information from the results of a post mortem and an inquest that happpened in 1940, and if that is possible would it tell me any more than a death cert would.

Hi, Lee. If you look in the local paper (libraries usually have archives of these) then you may well find a report of the inquest, and it might include evidence that was presented from the post-mortem. It might well tell you more than the death certificate does. Kate.
