A WOMAN and three young children who died in a house fire in east Manchester last week have been named.
Michelle Froggatt, aged 21 and her two sons three-year-old Calvin and 18-month-old Charlie died when they home in Wil Griffiths Walk, Beswick, caught fire.
Their cousin five-year-old Daniel Christopher Atherley, was also killed in the blaze on January 8th.
A 10-year-old boy, Daniel's brother, managed to escape from the house but Michelle and the other children were trapped inside.
Their deaths have now been referred to the Coroner who will hold an inquest to establish how they died.
Although there is no longer a criminal investigation, the police, the fire service and the Forensic Science Service continue to work for the Coroner to assist him in establishing the cause of the blaze.
