SUDDEN DEATH OF A HINKLEY BUILDER
INQUEST AND VERDICT
It is our painful duty this week to chronicle the death of Mr. John Garner, carpenter and builder, Trinity Lane, which took place very suddenly on Sunday afternoon. As deceased was well known, not only in the town, but also throughout a large area of the surrounding district, the news of his demise will be received with profound regret.
Deceased was by trade a carpenter, and he also undertook building, having erected a goodly number of houses in the locality of Trinity Lane the whole work of which he superintended and carried out by his own workmen. Mr. Garner was apprenticed to Mr. Flavell, and after working his apprenticeship for many years worked for the firm of Messrs T. and G. Harrold. He was industrious and known to be a man of strict business habits. As is well known, the deceased was closely associated with the temperance movement in the town. He generally attended the meetings of the association, and on one or two occasions at the local licensing courts presented petitions in opposition to the granting of new applications. For many years Mr. Garner was a diligent director of the Hinckley Permanent Benefit Building Society, and in this capacity rendered signal help to the society. He also took a prominent part in establishing the coffee house (managed by the Hinckley Coffee and Cocoa House Co.) over a quarter of a century ago, and has since been a director of the concern. In creed Mr. Garner was a staunch churchman, and was a constant worshipper at the Parish Church of Holy Trinity. It may be mentioned that in connection with this place of worship he acted for many years as one of the wardens, besides being connected with other movements organised in connection with the church.
THE INQUEST on the body was held at the Union Hotel on Monday. Elizabeth E. Garner was the first witness called. She said the deceased was her father and was about 61 years of age. She identified the body. Deceased was a carpenter and builder, and died on Sunday afternoon. Deceased seemed quite as well as usual. After tea on Sunday he went into the front room and sat down on a chair. Witness was in the same room with him. About half-past five she noticed deceased to turn very pale; he gave two or three deep sighs, and then lay back in the chair. Witness went to him at once. She did not think he was dead then, as he was breathing a little. They sent for Dr. Hall immediately, but before the doctor arrived her father was dead. Deceased had never been poorly and she was not aware that he had ever suffered from his heart, as he had not complained of it. He had not been seen by a doctor for the last two years. Deceased had worked a little of late; he had been doing a bit of painting, but witness did not think he had been working harder than usual.
Dr. Hall stated that he saw deceased a short time ago, and he then appeared well. The cause of death was syncope.

On Easter Monday at Holy Trinity Church, Hinkley, Miss E. Garner, only daughter of the late Mr. John Garner, builder of Hinkley, was married to Mr. W. Weaver, builder and contractor of The Strand, Bromsgrove. The Rev C Davies officiated.
The bride wore a very pretty blue dress and carried a trailing bouquet of choice white flowers. Miss Ada Flavell and Miss Elsie Garner (niece), who acted as bridesmaids, also had very preety bouquets, and wore gold bracelets, the gifts of the bridegroom. The bride was given away by her brother, Mr. T. Garner, and Mr. Weaver was attended by his brother, Mr. J. T. Weaver, as best man. A very pretty scene was witnessed after the bride and bridegroom left the vestry, when Master Boyd Weaver and Miss Gladys Garner, who were dressed in white, went in front of the newly-married couple and threw flowers in their path, while outside the Church they were received with showers of confetti.
The ceremony was witnessed by a great many friends, the Church being nearly full. Amongst those present were noticed Mr. and Mrs. Willoughby Garner and Miss Margery Garner, Mrs. T. Garner, Mrs J Weaver and Master Boyd Weaver (Bromsgrove), Mr. and Mrs. T. Guest (Droitwich), Mrs Boulton Brooks, Mrs Flavell, Mrs C Davies, Mrs R.E.Hill, Misses Pickering, etc., etc.

DEATH OF MRS WILLIAM WEAVER
After a long illness the death has occurred at 'Ambleside', Bromsgrove, on Saturday morning, of Mrs. Esther Elizabeth Weaver, wife of Mr. William Weaver, builder of Bromsgrove. The deceased had been ill since the birth of her baby boy on July 18th, since when but little hope were entertained of her recovery. Although a resident in the town for but eight years, Mrs. Weaver had won the esteem of all whom she had met and as an earnest worker in the affairs of the Church of All Saints', where her husband is Vicar's Warden, she achieved a very wide measure of respect. She also interested hereself in other purposeful work such as the Bromsgrove Nursing Association and the British Womens Temperance Association, and in all she undertook thoroughness and sympathetic nature won for her a well deserved popularity. The funeral of the deceased took place on Wednesday afternoon at Bromsgrove Cemetery. The burial service aws conducted at All Saints' Church, by the Rev. F.L. Milward (Vicar) and the Rev. H. J. Woodman (Curate). There was a large congregation. As the procession entered the church, the organist played "O Rest in the Lord". The choir sang the hymns "Jerusalem, my happy home" and "Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear", and also rendered the anthem "Lie still, beloved, lie still" (Dr C.H.Lloyd).

In 1997 a man named Alan Eatwell sent me an e-mail regarding his
Garner ancestors. Here is what he had to say:
"My grandmother was Gladys Esther Garner (1896-1978). Her father was
Thomas Garner (1864-1934) and married Barbara Green in 1889. He was
born in Burbage. The family then moved to Hinckley (2 miles away).
Thomas' father was John Garner (b. 1839) who married Esther Bailey in
1862. His father was Timothy Garner, who married Mary Leigh.
It may interest you that my great uncle John Bailey Garner was a major
in the Royal Leicestershire Regiment and my g great uncle Willoughby
Garner was the Colonel of the Regiment around the beginning of WW1.
My family still live in Burbage." - Alan Eatwell
