Does anyone have any evidence of victims of mine accidents being buried in their home parishes, rather than where the accident happened, in mid 19th Century?
Also, was there a colloquial term for when someone fell from ladders. (Thinking Cornwall mostly – I have heard the term ‘fell away’?)
Many thanks,
Lynne Mayers
