Hello all, A direct ancestor of mine, David Plews, hung himself on the 28th of August 1868 in "The Old Castle, Castle Bolton" (according to his death certificate). I'm afraid I don't know very much about Castle Bolton and I wonder if anyone can fill me in on the history of the castle at that time, and how come David Plews might have gained access to commit suicide (his occupation was Lead Miner). Also, might the event have been reported in a local newspaper? If so, can anyone point me in the right direction to follow this up. Finally, the death cert says an inquest was held - could there be any records of this still held? If so, where? Many thanks in anticipation, Zoe
