Death Elizabeth MacDonald, July 26, 1932
« on: Tuesday 19 March 24 18:45 GMT (UK) »
Elizabeth MacDonald nee Patterson was born abt 1868 in Sea Point, Cape Town, South Africa to William Patterson and Annie Crossett. She firstly married Henry William Bailey Apr 1912 (unverified) in England although I think they had many children prior to marriage, possibly starting with Elizabeth Emily Bailey abt 1886. Her husband Henry died Sept 25. 1915 and Elizabeth remarried to John MacDonald Oct 1917. John died 1935, unverified.
Ultimately, I am hoping to find the parents of Elizabeth's mother Annie Crossett, born abt 1843 in Ireland, who married William Patterson Feb 10, 1859 in Magherafelt COI, Ireland and they immediately emigrated to South Africa with son Wesley Wellington Patterson  being born at sea in 1860.  Annie died Aug 28,  1882 in Cape Town as per the Cape Times Newspaper of Aug 29, but I don't have Annie's death certificate. I know her father was John (deceased) as per Annie's marriage record in 1859 but I don't have her mother's name.
Thanks for any help.

Not quite sure what the death of Elizabeth (as in Subject Title) has to do with the rest of your query?

Thank you KGarrad for verification of Elizabeth’s marriage to Henry W. Bailey. As for the link to Annie, perhaps Elizabeth’s death certificate would give Elizabeth’s date and exact place of birth and an obituary might name living relatives which could lead to Annie’s family line.
Thank you softly softly for that death record which gives Annie’s  mother’s name as Anne Crossett although it is not likely to be her maiden name. I advanced to the next image which is for a different person but I noticed that on the left side of the next image  is the backside of Annie‘s death certificate which is cut off but contains further information about Annie’s probate.  I wonder how one would get to see the backside of Annie’s death record.
Thank you both for your help.

Added: I do have an ancestry subscription and I will look into the info about John MacDonald.

Date and place of birth were added to death certificates from 1969.

Thanks KGarrad. So Elizabeth's death certificate not going to help but an obituary might, if there was one, as per relatives.
