Can anybody decipher this death certificate?

Good afternoon,

Can any body make out the cause of death and the informant from my 5x great grandmother from 1856?

Many thanks

Hi Teletran,

Cause is "Cancer of the Generative Organs, 2 years, certified"

And the Informant is Honora Mullins, present at the death, 9 Great Peter Street, Westminster

I assume that means Cancer of the Uterus

Agree with PrawnCocktail. It could be cancer of uterus and ovaries - how awful for her .
