Benjamin Marriott d13 March 1886 Intake

I am looking for the burial record of Benjamin Marriott d 13 March 1886 aged 55 at Intake and his wife Lucy (who died in Intake 7th Jan 1914)

I cant find any record but his inquest was held at the Ball Inn as he had being killed in a mining accident at Birley Colliery.

I have currently only going through the Sheffield Daily Telegraph and I see yours came from the Sheffield Free Press, was he a relative?

I think this is worth it as it reveals the tragic number of deaths that occured in the collieries. Not to mention the widows and children left behind.

Hi Philip, well seen.

I suppose after so many years a story relating to Anthony's death wouldn't have survived down through all those generations of the family.
What a horrible way to die, looking at dates he held on to life for a couple of weeks, poor soul!
There is no gravestone to remember him in that Gleadless grave yard.
