Hi Allan, thanks for that. I had tried googling for Throapham as that's where he's apparently buried, but couldn't find anything, even tried to search for the church so that I could ask them for detials, but again no luck, so will try your suggestions, |

I was going to suggest the "Halifax Courier & Guardian" but looking at a map that's a bit far away. Your best bet would be something published in Rotherham or possibly Doncaster. |
