Death Cert came today !
I went for the Portsea one in the end.............think we've got the right one as well.
Died 27th January 1866 - Garrison Hospital
Richard Fagg - male - aged 36
Private - 52nd Regiment
Cause of Death - Phthisis Pulmonalis 40 days (TB of the lungs)
Informant - Thomas Doody - Garrison Hospital Portsea
Registered 29th January 1866
So that fits in pretty good, as his wife gave birth to his son 4 months later, then re-married to a Corporal - Joseph Jackson - in the same 52nd Regiment.
The only slight 'question mark' I have in this is that the marriage cert from 1864 said that Richard Fagg was a butcher - however his sons Birth cert in May 1866 at Aldershot says his father (Richard Fagg) was in the 52nd Regiment.
All in all..................right certificate ??? What do you think ?
Thanks so much for the thoughts so far - all appreciated.
