Newspaper Archives
« on: Saturday 08 August 09 12:28 BST (UK) »
Hi
Can anyone advise me as to whether there are any on-line Northamptonshire newspaper archives for 1908?  An infant ancestor of mine was involded in a tragic accident involving a bus/cart (?) so I'm hoping that the event may have been reported in the local newspaper or that there was a Coronors Inquest.  The death was registered in Kettering so I'm assuming that the accident happened in or around that area.
Any advice would be appreciated
