My Greatnan Wright died in a house fire around 1958-1960ish in Sheffield - it was front page of the Sheffield Star (local town paper)

I am wanting to look for a copy at the Sheffield archives but need a date of death

Her name was Florence Lucy Wright (nee Linger) b 1894
She was buried at the Intake Cemetery in Sheffield

Thanks

Hi Emma. I have gone through the official Death index and there is only one at the moment I can find.
Florence Wright. aged 68 July/Sept. Qtr. reg in Sheffield. vol 2d 105.

I have found her marriage 1915. April/June Qtr. reg in Bedford. vol 3b 927

Birth.Florence L.Linger. 1893. July/Sept. Qtr. reg in Bedford. vol 3b 293.

I cannot say if the death one I have found is the right one.I looked through 1958-1960 Ethel.
