Poor woman, she had her last child in September 1892, and died Jan 1895. I will double check there wasn't another child in between,but that's a long time to be this ill.  :(

Thanks guys, I thought I saw Influenza and couldn't see anything else.

She was only ill 10 or perhaps 16 days it says so on the cert. but is covered by the upper lettering, so she had just given birth. If you can't find a birth it was very likely a stillbirth.
