DEATH CERTIFICATES

Excited ! Traced Helena Tivey and Henry Clarke's death certificates on the census website and then ordered a copy of their death certificates....
Henry died in 1905 aged 38 - so should be able to find out what he died of.

Also reading 'Awakenings' by Oliver Sacks - all about encaephalitis lethargic patients being treated with levo dopa and wakening up after decades of inertia. Gives a good insight into the disease and makes me wonder how long Helena had it before she died ?
