Medical Certificate
« on: Saturday 13 August 22 14:32 BST (UK) »
Hello,

I hope the group can help me decipher a couple of words and names on my 2x Great-grandmother Amelia Ann Mitchell's Medical Certificate who was sent to Dorset County Asylum in 1877 and eventually died in Portsea Island Borough Lunatic Asylum in 1882.

I have spent many hours transcribing the original document, however I am stuck on a couple of words and names.

I have underlined the words and names causing problems in the attached document.

Any help, suggestions or comments will be thankfully received and appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve

I agree with tellx above. All I can add is I think the name is Mrs Venn.

I agree - with the addition of “Mrs Venn”.

How sad. The calling after the dead children is heartbreaking.
