I just paid £5 and still can't see it.  It gives Charlotte Bird 72 yrs old.  Frustrating.

I'm sorry Westee, I took your burial date and location as fact - should have checked as jonw65 did.

No worries Jon.  Really appreciate the input and details,  as I was wondering which cemetery she was interred.  You will have to tell me how far approximately Ilford is from Whitechapel.  Would you know?  Which borough or parish would Ilford come under?  If I could find some other 'Birds' living in Ilford could help.

I have since obtained the death cert. with the following details:

Charlotte Bird -Died 7th Dec. 1869 aged 43 yrs and profession was "Assistant Nurse at the London Hospital".  Died of chronic rheumatic arthritis operation and Erysipelas,  Exhaustion" certified. 
So Charlotte was working in the hospital!  the Informant was a M. McCombe present at death. 

Still doesn't confirm absolutely that this is her but the challenge for me is to try and find out.  Being a nurse working in London hospital may be helpful.

Ilford to Whitechapel is 7 or 8 miles.

London Borough of Redbridge.
 It split from the parish of Barking in 1888, and, in the 20th century, Ilford significantly expanded and increased in population, becoming a municipal borough in 1926. In 1965, it merged with Wanstead and Woodford, also incorporating parts of neighbouring districts, to form the London Borough of Redbridge, part of Greater London.
