My 5th great grandfather Charles Keagle committed suicide and was buried on 3 Jun 1791 at Whitchurch, Devon, England.
On 16 Jun 1791, the Bath Chronicle and Weekly Gazette reported on the inquest.
I have located baptisms for his eight children who were living at the time. However, I have not been able to find one for the ninth child who was expected to be born soon thereafter, nor any record of his wife Margery (nee Scoble; baptised 21 Oct 1754 at Sampford Spiney, Devon; married 3 Apr 1774 at Buckland Monachorum, Devon) after the event.
Presumably, the remaining family of 9-10 would have been in need of churchparish support after such an event. What type of records should I be looking for?
So far I have looked, but not found anything that looks likely, at:
One daughter, my 4th great grandmother, Patience Keagle (1777-1807) married John Foot on 1 Jul 1797 at Whitchurch, so I am assuming that the family remained in that parish. I have not yet located marriages for two other daughters: Elizabeth (1780) and Margery (1785).
