James WHITE (General)

I recently received the following information about a mining fatality which I believe refers to my GGgrandfather;

WHITE James, 17/09/1851, , Collier, Bush, Peter Teague, Forest of Dean, Gloucester, Fall of coal.

FreeBMD also lists the death in the March Quarter of 1852.
Is this accident likely to have been reported in local newspapers at the time?

I have been unable to find the family of James, wife Mary and son James aged about 2 years in the on-line 1851 census, West Dean area, and am not sure where to go from here.

Thank you,

Averil Cave.

The Mine is most likely Teagues Engine Pit , or, Bush Pit
near Edge End in Worcester Walk, West Dean

Peter Teague ran Peter Teague and Co, a mining company =- operating several pits in the Coleford area including Hopewell

Thank you once again for your help.
I can see I will have to be careful and not jump to conclusions as I yesterday found another christening for an Anne White in Newland in the IGI.

ANNE WHITE

JAMES WHITE
Mother:
ANNE

On the 1881 James, (born 1849) is living at 10 Llewellyn Terr,Ystradyfodwg, Glamorgan, with Milson White and family. The name Milson occurs frequently in later generations so they could be related in some way.
