Sarah Burgess (n�e Rankin)
P�l's Great Grandmother


Her death cert gave me the following information:

• It suggests that she was 54 when she died which would put her year of birth as 1852 (but her marriage cert in 1866 gave her age as 20 suggesting a year of birth of 1846).
• It says she died of a "malignant disease of the upper maxilla which she had for 8 months". I am assuming this was cancer of the upper jaw.
• It would have confirmed the address, but I knew this from Thom's anyway.
