Many thanks to Karen who very kindly checked the death entry for Joseph
Anthony SOLON.

Almost all we have learnt from that document is that he died 13th February
1903, at the Lancaster Mine in Krugersdorp .

Can anyone suggest how I might learn more about his death? i.e. Mine
accident reported in Newspapers.

I was told he had been electrocuted, when electricity was first installed.

Any suggestions welcome.

Cheers
