hello all,
( and Mods, please feel free to move this if necessary)
My great grandfather drowned in a ( presumed) accident in 1927, in county Galway. I have a newspaper report ( from the Connaught Tribune) mentioning an investigation by the county coroner at the time. Does anyone know where ( if anywhere) a hard copy of this can be accessed? I presume any limitation is long expired , but I dont know where such a document would be kept ( unlike a death cert etc which is easily accessed)
Any assistance is much appreciated.

The Galway coroner would have the details. http://www.coroners.ie/en/cor/pages/coronercontactdetails#Galway

I get the impression that the documents published by coroners are very brief. Accessing the full documentation is more difficult. Accessing such an old document may be more difficult again.
