    Hi i am new to this site and hope you can help me . Looking for some information on my Uncle Alfred Thompson 1910-1938 I have found where he is buried but I think there may be a newspaper article on him about his death . As far as i am aware he was a game keeper at Whitbeck manor Askwith ,Otley yorks and he was shot by poachers I have looked for newspapers in that area and found nothing If anyone can surgest where I should look I would be gratefull
    regards Lynda

    A call to the library local to the area of his death may work. If they hold old newspapers the staff may be willing to look up any reference to the shooting for you, possibly for the cost of a photocopy and postage.
    This seems to be the contact for Otley library:
    Otley Library & Tourist Information
    Nelson Street
    Otley
    Yorkshire
    England
    LS21 1EZ
    Tel: 01943 466572
    Fax: 01943 466 675
