Hi Sonja - who appropriate - I just got a couple death certificates back picking them up from the mail box yesterday --- and figuring out what they say was my task at hand ---- ZJ Brown - of the Schoharie, NY - died January 1889 Son of Josiah Brown and Tryphena Russell - age 64y 4m 13 days Cause of death --- Bronchial Catarck - or perhaps Catar?h Any idea what the second word is ? The word that looks the closest is -- Catarrhal - Nose and throat discharge from cold or allergy Mark Brown PS - ZJ Brown's wife was Grace Clara Brown - born Cayuga Co, d/o of Melvin Brown and Polly (Mary) Salisbury. "Why in childhood and youth do we wish time to pass so quickly - we want to grow up so fast - yet as adults we wish just the opposite?" My Dog Skip R. Mark Brown knodish1@mac.com

It is probably spelled catarrh - which is an inflammation of a mucous membrane Alice ----- Original Message ----- From: "R.

I believe you're right, Alice. My husband's ggrandfather died of catarrh of the stomach, which my husband's cousin (an MD) said would have been quite painful.

Catarrh Inflammation of a mucous membranes in the air passages of the head and throat Bronchial catarrh was bronchitis; suffocative catarrh was croup; urethral catarrh was gleet; vaginal catarrh was leukorrhea; epidemic catarrh was the same as influenza. Also called cold, coryza. This description came from a list of older diagnoses from a genealogy site, thought it might also help!

Thanks Alice - it actually did look more like catarrh but I questioned the two r in a row --- but that is what it was I think.
