Dear Peggy, Hello, I googled "catarriah" and I think it is supposed to be spelled "catarrh". Put "catarrh of the stomach" in the google search bar and it comes up with a lot of stuff about it. It looks like it is some sort of an inflamation of the stomach, but it doesn't sound like it could have been deadly, but who knows.

Hi all I ran across this web page awhile ago and reference it often for old disease name and meanings. It may be of help to you for this and future things that you run across. http://www.homeoint.org/cazalet/oldnames.htm Blessings, Terri "Searching for Searcy/Sircy/Sercy's in TN" Melissa Barker <kaitysmom@peoplestel.net> wrote: Dear Peggy, Hello, I googled "catarriah" and I think it is supposed to be spelled "catarrh".

Thanks Melissa. That was on one of the death certificates you got for me. Another had Pellagra as reason of death. Now that was something I had never heard of either but was very interesting to read about. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Melissa Barker" <kaitysmom@peoplestel.net> To: <TNSMITH-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, October 23, 2005 2:06 PM Subject: Re: [TNSMITH] Cause of death > Dear Peggy, > > Hello, I googled "catarriah" and I think it is supposed to be spelled > "catarrh".

Perhaps constant drainage into the stomach over time without treatment of any kind could damage the lining of the stomach thus creating a serious problem especially when combined with other problems. Who knows? They did not have the cures then that we do now. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Melissa Barker" <kaitysmom@peoplestel.net> To: <TNSMITH-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, October 23, 2005 2:06 PM Subject: Re: [TNSMITH] Cause of death > Dear Peggy, > > Hello, I googled "catarriah" and I think it is supposed to be spelled > "catarrh".
