Could some kind person with a full sub. please look at the Norwich Chronicle of 14 Dec 1793. We are interested in the death of a Mr John Langton mentioned in the paper on that date.

A friend thinks this John Langton may be an ancestor of his and would appreciate it if someone could have a look to see if it gives any information about him.

Thank you very much.
