Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Help deciphering please
« on: Tuesday 25 November 25 23:40 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all,

On further investigation and speaking with medical professionals the cause of death stated
would have meant violent and sudden stroke, Apoplectic Passion attack/fit;

The clerks abbreviation, although not good,  it explains the other misspelling's on simpler words
and his mistakes.

I really love these old medical records.

Thank you all again very much.
I guess I'll be back again another time  :)

Thank you all very much.

I didn't think of Latin so that is a real possibility, only thing is I have to wonder why the only use of
Latin is in that one line?? and those two words.

All other information recorded is in fairly plain English although with spelling mistakes the hand is fairly consistent.
Can't help but think there is more to it but I may have to just leave it at that.

As always the members at Rootschat are very helpful and always willing to help.

Very appreciated
thankyou.

I don't profess to be computer whizz even after all these years but I have managed to post
more of the page ;D

Not sure why it stopped me previously but who cares.
I hope this will offer more clarity.

Thank you all again for your help and interest.

I had to down size the attachment to the size I posted, it wont let me post it any larger.
The year is 1809.
Edinburgh,  Leith Walk location of persons home.
77 aged at death.

I have assumed that the words I fail to decipher are either occupation or cause of death???

Makes no sense to me.

Thank you all for trying to help.

Hi all,

Its been some time since I posted and am hoping someone can help decipher some words on
a death register.

The two words after the number 77 ??

I thought the first letter is E then lit  and the next word pasion,   but that doesn't
make sense to me anyway.
Appreciate any and all help

Thank you all,

These little mysteries don't stay mysteries for very long not when you post them on this site.

The expertise available here is invaluable.
