Title: Mary ORGAN (Lanherne/St Mawgan) coroner's report/local paper 1890
Post by: pinner-girl on Friday 16 April 10 21:42 BST (UK)

I have just received a death certificate for MARY ORGAN (35yrs) who was the Doorkeeper at Lanherne Convent, St Mawgan. She died on 18th Jan 1890 and an inquest was held on 20th Jan 1890. The death certificate  states that Mary died 'from the effects of injuries caused to her throat by accidentally falling on a piece of broken china'.  Is it possible to see the coroner's report or might there be an account in a local paper?  I'd be most grateful for any help since I live a long way from Cornwall.

the Cornish Studies Centre in Redruth has newspapers on microfilm. You could ask them to look for you
