Thank you again Gaffy and Kiltaglassan. I think everything that you've provided looks accurate.

Looking at the civil record for Edward's death, I'm trying to work out what he died of? To me it looks like it might be Cirrhosis of the liver. Then there are two words I can't make out, then I believe it says no medical attendant. But the two middle words I don't get. To me they look like 'almond spears' but that wouldn't make any sense!
;D Doing my best, but frequently wrong ;D
:-* My thanks to everyone who helps me, you are all marvellous :-*

I think 'almond spears' is more likely to be 'several years'.

Thank you, that makes sense.

I'm sorry to hear it, but glad he didn't have a run in with an almond!

Agree with gaffy.

Disease of liver
Several years
No medical attendant
