Staffordshire completed Look up Requests / Re: Burials St Annes Church, Chasetown

After much research I was able to confirm that the name WILLIAM had been missed off the transcription.

I emailed BFHG and, after checking all the details, they informed me that they have amended the transcription.

Staffordshire completed Look up Requests / Burials St Annes Church, Chasetown

Please could SKS check the parish register for a burial at St Annes Church, Chasetown?  I am hoping that the registers have been filmed....

I have a death certificate for William James HARRIS who died 5th Feb 1925.

On the NBI there is a burial at St Annes for a JAMES Harris 11 Feb 1925.

I can't see a GRO death entry for a James Harris in that quarter.

I wondered if the name WILLIAM had been missed off in the transcription.  William James Harris' mother, Ellen, is also buried in that churchyard along with at least four other family members.

TIA

Staffordshire / Re: Staffordshire Colliery Deaths
« on: Friday 03 October 08 22:23 BST (UK)  »
William James HARRIS died in Hammerwich Hospital on the 5th Feb 1925. Five months after he was injured in an accident on 27th September 1924 at the no. 2 Pit of the Coppice Collery.  His right thigh had to be amputated.     An inquest was held on the 10th Feb 1925.

Can anyone advise me where to find details of what happened?  Would a report of the inquest be in a local newspaper?  If so, which paper and where am I likely to find a copy?  Are any of the local newspaper archives on-line?

I live in south Bucks and am not familiar with the Hammerwich area.  Any help or advice would be appreciated.  I recently posted a similar request on the Staffordshire Resources page.

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / 1891 census lookup in Sheffield, Yorks
« on: Sunday 06 May 07 22:44 BST (UK)  »
I am looking for Frances Lucilla FLETCHER - born in Nottingham in 1866.  She never married. 

I believe that she was in Sheffield For the 1891 census - but I don't know which area.

It's very little to go on  but I'm hoping that her name is unusual enough to make her relatively easy to find. 

I would be grateful for any help or advice.
