Thanks Stan, I know anything is unlikely, I thought the best there might be would be a list (like Liverpool).

Hi and welcome from me too

Don't get your hopes up that there will be anything of value in the report.  My paternal grandfather was killed in an industrial accident in 1919 and the wording on his death cert was identical to that on the coroners/inquest report (ie)

Injuries to head caused accidentally by coming in contact with a revolving shafting on 16th inst

Thanks CaroleW - I saw the Liverpool listings, and they were scant to say the least, and terribly written too! I expect to fail and get impressed when I succeed :-)

Hi Nanny Jan, that was quick!

I have had a look at that site & not seen anything relevant yet. I have already found the newspaper report, which is how I know there was an inquest.

I'm hoping to get to Crosby library sometime to see what they have available. I've been to Liverpool doing other family members and checked their coroners listings on the off chance it was held in Liverpool. Bootle is an odd place (for many reasons.....) but it is sometimes Lancs and then Liverpool for some things (like Street Directories).

Hello I am just getting into some family research & wondered if anybody knows if Bootle in Sefton (previously Lancs) has any Inquest records available (on fiche etc)?
I have a relative who died on the Docks & an inquest was held in 1929.

Many thanks Marienne, I was hoping to research Daniel and Catherine later in life.
So sad. Once again, your help has been fantastic to the family involved.
Cheers me dear

Hi Tina, I have been doing some family history & came across this post - these are all in my family tree. I live in Liverpool & have found some newspaper entries for the deaths. Can you PM me?

Cheers

Mike
