'The Forester' came into existence in 1874, not sure what month though.

Could anyone help me to find which newspapers might carry reports of inquests from the Coroner of the Forest District in 1874 and where they might be viewed?

I am led to believe that the Dean Forest Mercury started in 1881. Are there any other local papers around in 1874?

Many thanks
