George Warner died Feb. 21, 1891.

Barnardo's stated in admission report:
"A letter from Mr. Edward M. Glenny, of the North African Mission, 19 and 21, Linton Road, Barking, enclosing a newspaper cutting form the Essex Times of February 28th, 1891, first brought this case to our notice. The cutting in question contains a long report of the coroner’s inquest held upon the body of George Warner, the boy’s father, who died suddenly a few days previously, at 1, Emily Cottages, Fisher Street, Barking."

The boy in question is my great-grandfather who was sent to Canada by Barnardo. Geno 500 is trying to help me find a copy of the newspaper clipping. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Greetings from Surrey, BC, Canada

I am trying to find a newspaper article that was published on February 28, 1891 in the Essex Times. It is about the coroner's report on the body of George Warner (my 2x grandfather).

I have been unable to find the Essex Times online. Does any of you folks know where I can access a copy of this article. Or where or who I could contact to get a copy of the actual coroner's report.

I am grateful for any suggestions.

Cheers, Linda
