Death reported by Cecily Donaghy who was reported as wife of 45 year old farmer who died following a month of bronchitis without medical attention. It would appear that somehow there was a language misunderstanding between Cecily and person taking her information and given her illiteracy she was unable to read anything written and advise of mistakes. Death was recorded by the Assistant Register whose name was not found in other death registrations and may have been unfamiliar with the local dialect. Cecily reported 2 of the other children who died very young. James is not in the 2 census returns. In 1911 she reported having had 4 children die following birth which is consistent with James being one of them. James does not appear in other death records.
