Inquest Papers/Reports circa 1924
Does anyone know where I would go to find details of an inquest and coroners report please?
Details from death certificate: Man (my relative) dies in South Kensington 29th May 1924. This is not his home but possibly his place of work - his photographic studio??? Inquest held 31st May 1924 - natural causes after a post mortem. Have coroners name. Where do I go from here? I would like to know the circumstances of his death and why they held the PM and Inquest. It would also help me to establish if the address is his place of work. Thank you Viv

Ann & I are thinking of going to Colindale soon
Have to say, that what would be reported in great detail in a rural newspaper may not make it in the Metropolis |

My gt grandfather's death resulted in an inquest. He died in Islington in 1879 and the inquest was reported in a short paragraph in the local paper.
Unfortunately the LMA didn't have inquests from that time (though, typically, they did have some earlier and some later!)

Phoenix and Nell, thanks. Couldn't find any mention in The Times :-(
The place he died was Emperors Gate in Kensington,a 'very nice' area if you know what I mean :-)
