Hello Phil Bufton, I saw your reply to the question about Coroner's Reports for Herefordshire. Newspapers.\ That is all very well and good for the period when newspapers were in existance. However, I have a query for 1721. Way before newspapers came into being. In the Parish of Kington, I have a murder of a Walter Smith, at least I think he might be mine, who was murdered by his nephew in his tanyard. I would like to find out whether this man, or his nepew are related to me, but what now? Thank you for your time and effort. Maureen Jenkins Rhondda
Maureen, Try looking at the Hereford journal. See the Herefordshire Family History Society web page http://www.rootsweb.com/~ukhfhs/news.html which give details of the newspapers including "Hereford Journal and General Advertiser for the Counties of Hereford, Brecon, Radnor, Monmouth, Salop, Worcester and Gloucester, published by Mr. John McCoy. Established 1713, printed every Friday evening for Saturday - price 'one penny' - Politics Conservative."
