You could try contacting the local library at Ebbw Vale.   As you know his name and month of death they would probably be able to search the Death Notices in the local paper which would give you a more accurate date of actual death.   It would then be easier for either you or the library to search newspaper fiches for an actual report of the incident.

Hi

I am not sure if you mean Ebbw Vale, Queensland, Australia. If so, try the Courier Mail newspaper
