Title: (In)appropriate address
Post by: andrewalston on Monday 18 November 13 11:29 GMT (UK)
I've just received an 1841 death cert with a most (in)appropriate address in Manchester.

Shatwell's Buildings.

The informant lived there too, and had signed.

The cause of death - "Disease of the Bowels".

 ;D ;D ;D
