Can anyone tell me where I can get information about events in COleford Police station in 1913, according to his death certificate , my greatgrandfather George Treherne strangled himself there in 1913. I have no more information about this event. As he was a widower all his children then moved to Wales. All except one child named Charlotte or Alice. she was 13 at the time.

thanks

Those circumstances would probably trigger an Inquest.

So... Gloucestershire Archives or Newspapers

I contacted the Gloucester Coroners Office some while ago about the suspicious death in 1916 of an aunt. They were very helpful and supplied me with a full transcript of the inquest.

They can be contacted at:

It is best to write, rather than ring, giving as much detail about your request as possible.
