I am trying to find out a little more about William Henry Jackson (Called Henry Jackson). He died circa 1898 in Kingston upon Hull, and I believe he had an unfortunate end. This could have been the subject of a Newspaper story, so I would be grateful if someone could let me know what the most read newspaper would have been at that time. I think the death was the subject of an Inquest, but up to now I have not been able to find any records available. |

Pam, I'd be happy to do a look up in the on-line newspaper archives but it's such a common name it would help if we could narrow it down first. |

Hello Pam, I'm afraid those mentions from the newspaper archives I posted above were the only results that came up. |

Is this the 1891 for the chap you're researching? |

I forgot to mention that the 1891 census record shown by MarieCeleste is the correct family. |

Thanks Safc for this suggestion. The Spouse's name was definitely Ingram as I have other documentation which confirms this. William was also born in 1856 which is also confirmed. I guess Electoral Rolls are the next step. Will have to organise a trip to Yorkshire. |
