A very nice couple has reminded me that we need to include the countries along with our states or regions, when we send out our information. When I began this list, years ago, I did not in my wildest dreams, imagine how far reaching this thing we called the internet would become!! So, not only for common courtesy, but also for clarification, it doesn't take much effort for us to try to remember to include the country. Now, if we get into different languages---I am in serious trouble, but maybe that is a longer way off!!! :) :) :) Bev

I received this notice from another of my rootsweb lists..........seems that if you are on MSN, some people may be having some problems. It hasn't affected me, but there have been a lot of bounced e-mails coming back to me on this list. But then again, not all of them have noticeably been MSN..........but just in case, thought I had better pass this on.........If you have any doubts, let me know and I can also check through my administrator list to see if you have been unsubscribed. Thanks...............Bev ====================================================================== 1. News and Notes: ------------------ 1a. YOU'VE GOT MAIL!

Dropsy referred to edema (abnormal fluid collection) in the lower extremities or abdomen, could have been due to either heart failure or liver disease. Typhus is a disease caused by a rickettsia (funny intracellullar organism, not quite a virus) and was epidemic in many countries. Typhoid fever is caused by a bacteria (salmonella) often attributable to "carriers", like Typhoid Mary. It is unlikely that either was correctly diagnosed in the 19th century, so references could be to either. I don't know of any specific incident of epidemic in 1905. If the deaths were in the summer months, it could have been infectious diarrhea which carried away many young children in those days. Diphtheria, pertussis (whooping cough), and scarlet fever were also responsible for fatal epidemics among children, they usually occured in the winter. If you ever see the diagnosis of "Brights' Disease", it could mean almost anything, but usually referred to kidney failure.

Consumption was another that stumped me and was impossible to find the meaning of in modern dictionaries and thruough searchs online. Consumption was the same thing as TB. I still don't understand the definition of Dropsy. And I wondered if anyone could tell me if Typhoid fever is the same thing as Typhus. If it is I don't know what Typhus was either. One more question, I had quite a few ancestor's young children die around 1905 that I have yet to find their cause of death, was there a disease outbreak in that time frame that anyone knows about? I appreciate your time, and would be indebted to any responses. Thank You. > > > ==== BIGGS Mailing List ==== > What came before us, is like a path....we can follow it or make our own!! bev >

I found a page that explains some of the terms used for causes of deaths during the Civil War Era. http://www.geocities.com/jleago/CivilWarDisease.html Appoplexy was one of my ancestor's cause of death and found the word Appopletic on this page to mean a modern day equivalent of a stroke. Consumption was another that stumped me and was impossible to find the meaning of in modern dictionaries and thruough searchs online. Consumption was the same thing as TB. I still don't understand the definition of Dropsy. And I wondered if anyone could tell me if Typhoid fever is the same thing as Typhus. If it is I don't know what Typhus was either. One more question, I had quite a few ancestor's young children die around 1905 that I have yet to find their cause of death, was there a disease outbreak in that time frame that anyone knows about? I appreciate your time, and would be indebted to any responses. Thank You.

In looking at the birth dates you gave, it appears that the various Benjamin's shown in her book were born before mine - who was born between 1780-1790. Thanks again.
