Hello,
My Ancestor John Don born about 1819 died 24th May 1870, I have the record from Scotland's People and his cause of death was Suicide by Hanging and the informant was his son.
What I'd like to know is if it would be likely that there was an inquest and where I would look to see if any records relate to it?
I also found a record on Ancestry of a his obituary in the local newspaper but it just says that he committed suicide, no mention of any investigation.
Thanks.
Becky
