Has anyone seen this comment added (in brackets) to the Death Certificate section, 'Cause of Death'?
"She was a Rubbish Eater" (Main reason being acute peritonitis due to perforated ulcer)
The year is 1908 and my Ancestor at death was 35 years old. I have also found a variety of admissions to the Workhouse or Asylum for her over her last 21 years. Surely this statement is not a glowing testament to the quality of food given to her in these Institutions?
