Burnley hasn't been good to us in regards of the headstones. We find the final resting places but hardly any headstones there. Good to see you out all over the place. The stories you have covered are remarkable! Keep it going 😀

Hi guys, just watched this one, was pre disposed Monday. From what I've read, being labelled Felo-de-se, he was fortunate to be buried in a cemetery. The phrase means felon against the self and therefore being a suicide he could have been buried in secrecy and normally at a crossroads. Also, as a sort of mark against the person, his property would be taken by the crown and not inherited. By 1911, it was more common to be non compos mentis.

It was the early 1800s, possibly 1823, according to a few online sources, when the last known burial at a crossroad was made. I think many acts came into place after that, including ones that changed how suicide victims were to be treated.

It was an all to common occurrence all those years ago. I guess it could be labelled as domestic abuse? After all, Alice had put a court order on Charles to try and keep him away from her, so something must have happened prior in their marriage. i would hazard a guess?

An interesting yet tragic story thanks. Did you manage to find the grave of Charles Laffan's father? Charles senior lead quite an eventful life himself by all accounts. He was in the Royal Navy and in 1857 he was sent aboard the ship The Sarah Sands to quell an Indian mutiny. Ironically the conditions on the ship were that poor that there was a mutinous revolt, and to make matters worse the ship caught fire in the Indian Ocean. The crew, however, were able to steer the ship in very trying conditions to the island of Mauritius to receive "a heroes' welcome" when the ship limped into port. Charles and the crew of the Sarah Sands received military medals for the action (Long Service and Good Conduct Medal, Meritorious Service Medal and Mutiny Medal). He was buried in Burnley Cemetery in 1921 with military honours. Seems such a sharp contrast to the life of his son. I was wondering whether his father's naval experiences had a bearing on Charles junior's actions? Maybe he was seen as such a hero that his son felt inadequate in some way? Or maybe he was a strict disciplinarian given his 41 years of naval service and that had an affect on him? Sorry for the long comment but as you'll know yourself, once you start exploring these stories they get more fascinating the more you delve into them!

Don't apologise, this info is fantastic! I just replied to the family relative saying it would be good to look into young Charlie's career as a policeman as there might be some tales there.

If you’re SUPER keen to get on the embankment you can trek down from Rosegrove station or up from the barracks or Manchester road I guess. Grove probably easiest and quietest.

The first time I've heard of that term felo-de-se, always learning. The effort to piece these stories together is incredible, and it's interesting to see the same path taken. Most people in that area won't have a clue about what took place there in 1911. Nice to see some of the old buildings, railway bridge and cobbles still remain.

It's the same in most town and villages - loads of history that could be unearthed and I reckon some stories will make for great videos.

Greetings from Scotland. Recently found your show and hooked on it. Great research work. My maternal grandfather committed suicide in 1925 by drinking Lysol...bleach. He was 28 years old: my mother was 18 months old at the time.

I think sometimes there was no headstone or marker if the deceased died by their own hand being against the Christian faith.

Hello I’m sure there was a footbridge over the railway at the end of peace street so maybe the police officer and Charles did not have to scale the wall they could have got on the embankment from opening in the footbridge

The only thing we read was that he scaled a wallmtomget over onto the embankment, BUT newspaper reports from that period are known to get things wrong. So you could well be right with that 😀
