VT, having 6 prev children, with 5 alive. > >14 Dec 1908 death of James COVEY age 45 s/o John COVEY and Roxanna >HUNTER -cause: anasarca (?), buried in Ellenburg.<< The closes �James COVEY� I find in my records is [George] James COVEY b c1862 , the 8 th child of John COVEY & Roxanna HUNTER, m [Almia] (?), having 6 children, one of whom was named Hazel COVEY. The birth date of George James COVEY as well as his parentage seem right as well as the child�s name. His wife�s name, however, is a problem. Do you think one of us could have the wrong name, and how can we check it? It is only a guess but I think the child born in 1899 would be Dorothy COVEY. Dorothy is listed just before Hazel in my records and the child before Dorothy was born in 1896. According to my Old Disease Dictionary, [anasarca] is �Generalized massive dropsy�, probably congestive heart failure. Hope this helps and if anyone finds any errors, omissions that they can fill, etc., etc. please post them to the COVEY list. My plea is, as always, please POST TO OUR LIST!!!
