Sorry but I don't have access to newspapers that late.
You can get his death certificate as a digital image for £3 from the GRO.
That might help.

I came across Stanley Hurst as a photographer in Wrexham, there are many reports in the Wrexham Advertiser,
There are some of his photos on Ebay.
I just couldn`t find who he was, the births of the Hurst girls puzzled me,  what had happened to their father Mr Smith. After a bit  more picking around I finally cracked it.
For anyone wondering where William James Smith disappeared to - here he is .

I thought there was a sub board for this but can`t find it.

Can anyone look at Chester Observer 16 Jan 1926 and same paper 14 August 1926
 I am interested in the  deaths of Stanley Hurst in January and his widow Harriet Hurst in August.
Thanks. 

Someone's family tree on Anc* says he died 28 October 1849 at Little Drayton and buried there on 1 November 1849.

I can see the Parish Register entry on FindMyPast but it doesn't record a date of death. Assume there's also a death cert.

STUBBS, WILLIAM    65  GRO Reference: 1849  D Quarter in MARKET DRAYTON UNION

David Blair Wilson was at the Royal Oak in 1878, according to a newspaper article when his coals were stolen

he took on the licence of the Bridge Inn in 1880
