  • Oh dear, that's unfortunate

    I have just received the death cert for my g-g-grandmother, Elizabeth Clark. I know from the memoirs of my great-aunt that Elizabeth was a rather serious and snobby lady. So, I expect she wouldn't be happy that I now know her cause of death (aged 87) .........

    Heart failure due to an attack of flatulent dyspepsia.



    It took an inquest to decide that, presumably because she wasn't ill beforehand?

      Perhaps someone reported hearing gunfire?

          It's just occurred to me that really she should be OHs gg-grandmother rather than mine, as there would definitely be a genetic similarity

                Did she have the heart attack before or after she hit her head on the chandelier?
