Brian Whitehead, 72, didn’t have household at his bedside when he handed away on December 7.

Now the coroner for York and North Yorkshire must find his subsequent of kin in order that the formalities of dying and different issues may be accomplished.

A North Yorkshire Police spokesman mentioned: “The coroner is attempting to hint any relations, or anybody that may know him and know who his household are.

If in case you have any info please electronic mail, Coroner@northyorkshire.police.uk for the eye of Sandra Prince.”

Police confirmed the circumstances of Mr Whitehead’s dying weren’t suspicious.
