Its me again!
I have recieved a death cert today for my gran's first husband, but just found that they were not married after all. She is named as informant in her maiden name . It doesn't surprize me with her track record so far.
She told dad a story that her husband George Albert Becker was attacked on a friday evening while lockin up his business. This may fall in with his death cert-cause of death age 50 cerebal thrombosis p.m.causing the body to be bruised. He died at 204 Hoxton street London which i think was his business address. He was a master cabinet maker.
Are there any newspapers published on 15/8/1929 which may have an article regarding the incident ? Which news papers for that area would I look for. Are they avaliable online. I live in Cheshire -Its a long way to London.
Thanks Donna
