It means that assuming the question was asked and answered correctly she died during the year beginning June 1 1879 and ending May 31 1880. The cause of death looks like typhoid pneumonia to me.

Question, it says at top of page : Persons who DIED during the year ending May 31, 1880 so does that mean she died in 1880 or sometime during May 1879-May 1880? It's Phil.,Phil.,Pa. pg. 473 At the bottom SARAH RINK age 71 F I really can't make out what it says for cause of death and or the name of the person to the right of it. Also can't read the header for that column of who that person on the right its. Any help appreciated. Thanks. Patti
