Re: Costello family of Attercliffe

In the Sheffield and Rotherham Independent, 22 July 1886.
Accident at Renishaw Colliery.
Patrick Sherlock residing at 20 Northgate, Eckington, met a serious accident. He was
removing props when a quantity of stone fell on him, injuring his back and crushing him.
He was conveyed home in the companys ambulence.

Presumably this was the cause of his early death in 1888.

Moira.

Re: Costello family of Attercliffe

Father is Edmond for Martha's 1938 marriage
COSTELLO, Martha (Spinster, age 25, ~, residing at 72 Swarcliffe Rd).
Married George Leslie STUBBINS, on January 1, 1938, by Sydney T G Smith (Banns) at
Christ Church, Attercliffe. Father's name is Edmond Costello, deceased (Coal miner).
Married in the presence of John Henry Greaves, Dorothy Stubbins.

But Margaret's father at her marriage is James. Could be transcription error or maybe the writer got it wrong.
