Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: deciphering cause of death

I keep looking and it seems to me to be hand not head, also thinking if he had a gunshot wound to head that would have killed him before developing tetanus. 
It was Allendale , Northumberland .

It also seems an odd site for a gunshot wound ! Such a young age and he had a 1 year old son .

Opinions please on cause of death . I think it is ...  locked jaw occasioned from gunshot wound in the hand. I would welcome peoples opinions or suggestions.

My hubby says "is your Humax box HD ?" Smithsonian channel is on multiplex 55 which is a HD frequency. Presume your TV is HD because you are picking it up on that.
hope that helps. :)

I certainly am still interested. I thought I would never find which part of Germany he came from. This site never ceases to amaze me,I thought I had checked all the censuses,obviously I hadn't .
Thanks for your help.

Hi John
The 2 missing are Joseph born 1913 died 1915 and my dad Albert born 1920 died 2013.
I hadn't heard the story about Australia.
Unfortunately my grandmother Catherine died before my parents married, dad was abroad serving in the Royal Engineers, however as he was the only one not married Catherine's wedding ring was saved for him so it was used when my parents married and now it is my daughters wedding ring, wonder if the gold came from Australia!
regards

Hi John
Many thanks for sharing your information.I haven't been doing much family history for a couple of years (both myself and my husband parents have passed away ) and I seemed to loose enthusiasm without anyone to share the info with,my brothers are not really interested!However my Christmas present this year has been an ancestry subscription and I am looking forward starting again so your post has been very timely.
 My grandmother was Catherine McVeety b 1877. Her father was Henry McVeety and mother Hannah Etchells. Her grandparents were George McVeety and Margaret Balaam.
By 1895 both Catherine's parents had died and she left Liverpool on SS Southwark to travel to America. My father told me she went to stay with an uncle ,however she didn't settle and returned to Manchester by 1899 when she married Charles Bowden. My father was the youngest of their 10 children. I haven't been able to find out if the uncle she went to stay with was from the McVeety side of the family . The address she went to stay at was 2340 Biddle street in the Chester area of Philadelphia.

regards

Linda
