Bristol Newspaper
« on: Friday 24 August 12 19:26 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find a couple of newspaper clipping one about a accident on 4Th July 1942. It involved a Lilly Bindon who was knocked down and killed by a taxi in Old Market, Bristol.  The other involved a Alfred Bindon who died from gas fumes in about March 1949 in Speedwell Bristol. Can anyone tell me where to look or can give me a copy of the clippings Thank you

Hi Molly
There is a report of Lilian Brindon in Western Daily Press - 4th July 1942 and also of Alfred finding his brother Frederick in bath with room full of gas- again Western Daily Press - 15th February 1949

Both can be viewed via British Newspapers Online - Send me PM if you get stuck
