Subject: [MON] BENDALL- Help Please- Suicide in Canal in 1909
Hello List.
I was wondering if anyone could please help or advise me concerning a
death
certificate I have just received.
It gives info about an Edward George Bendall, who I think may be my late
Grandmothers brother (I am not sure though).
The info is as follows -
Edward George Bendall - Aged 29- Suicide by drowning. - Found drowned in
the Great Western Railway Canal near Bullocks Bridge Llantarnam.
on 5/12/1909. It states that he is a Colliery Haulier of Sengenydd.
The certificate states that an inquest was held for South Monmouthshire,
the registration district is given as Newport, Mon.
The sub district is Marwolaeth yn Is-ddosbarth.
Is there any records I could research, that would give me more information
concerning Edward - i.e where he lived/ was he married etc.
Any help or advice would be very much appreciated.
Thank you
Lynda Hunt (Cardiff)
