Hello There,

I don't suppose anyone could do me a lookup in the Sheffield/Barnsley newspapers at Sheffield Archives for the result of an inquest? The death certificate of my wife's gt gt grandma Jane Darlington explains that she died as the result of injuries sustained in a fall from a steam roundabout at Hoyland Common. Accident 14th July, died 20th July, inquest held 21st July 1914 with information received from Sheffield City coroner.

I have checked online newspaper archives to no avail.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Cheers

Pete :)

Hi Richard,

Yep that is her, I have a copy of the Death Certificate. She was born Jane Grime abt 1882 in Turton, Lancs
