Yes..  going to have to send for one cert cos they all died 1859 so must have been some stupid deadly disease......  that was prevelant at the time.

Xin - I have a family which lost three children all in 1854 - and that's what I thought - but they were all different causes - that was a surprise for me!

Will be interested to hear the outcome of your searching.
