Seeking to track obituary notice for Margaret Turner, late of Lincoln,
UK, and Cherry Willingham, Lincs, UK.

You are unlikely to find out much from the obituary notice
- even assuming the relatives posted one
It is possible that you might find something in the local newspaper,
moderately likely if there is to be an inquest.
My sole experience of an inquest left me alarmed at how few facts were
revealed and how little analysis of those facts took place.
Essentially a pointless exercize.
I have a feeling that you know, or suspect something, and that it is
worrying you. If that is the case you need to find a rational and
intelligent friend with whom you can talk things over. Otherwise you
will brood - and/or cast out tentative 'feelers' over the web ...
One other thing you should know, g. answers is /very/ public, and is
even indexed by the standard g. search engine.
Best Regards
Hi Jerry
Oops ... I do know of a case where they didn't cremate until after the
inquest but that was an 'accidental' death in 'suspicious
circumstances'.
Maybe they normally do cremate after the autopsy, if one is required?
I just don't know!
Do you know when and where they died?
Do you have death certificates?
Hi, Andy
If there is to be an inquest then there won't be any death certificate
issued until after the cause of death has been determined. This could
include an Open Verdict which is inconclusive.
The inquest papers won't be publicly available until 70 years after
the event, except to members of her family.
If you wish to find out about where and when the inquest will be held,
maybe the Coroner's Office will tell you. Worth a call.

You will eventually be able to get a copy of the Death Certificate through:
http://www.1837online.com/Trace2web/
However, they are only up to 2002 at present.
Perhaps someone else may able to advise you further.

Margaret died within the last 14 days. I have known Margaret since I
was six weeks old. I am just trying a sensitive approach to
establishing the 'facts', without intruding on her two living
relatives grief - (Sister and sisters child). I understand that her
death is likely to be the subject of an inquest. Margaret suffered
from diabetes throughout her life, and her unexpected death was
nonetheless an achievement for her having reached her early 70's.
Your comment (probonopublico-ga) was helpful, because I'd failed to
state this aspect of my question in clear terms, and I thank you for
that.

Bryan,
The one inquest I attended was months after cremation.
Or is this a matter of terminology - Coroner's Inquest versus Autopsy
Published in the Lincolnshire Echo, 10/01/2005:
"D. MARGARET TURNER Suddenly but peacefully at Lincoln County Hospital
on 7th January, 2005, aged 71 years. ... Donations, if desired, to
Diabetes UK. ..."

There you go, Andy
Freddy (fp-ga) has found an obituary notice and if she were cremated
on 20 Jan then the inquest will have already been held, if there were
one.
Death often comes unexpectedly to the friends and family of a
deceased, even where there is a history of illness.
