Well, I've got my great granddads death certificate. Thankfully he wasn't poisoned. :-) He was shot & stabbed! :-0
Not really :-D He had TB :-(

I've got her death certificate. It says she died of 'cardiac failure'. So in the end she died of a broken heart. :-(

Hmm - hope they didn't die of poisoning or had suffered nasty falls!

Seriously, it makes you wonder what people might have got away with back then .....

Yeah. That's why I think she might be a black widow. ;-) I might have to get their death certificates to make sure. :-D

Well good for her Graham, sounds a bit of a girl!

I guess her previous husbands were actually dead when she remarried?

My great grandmothers fourth husband was 21 years younger than her. She still managed to out live him. :-)

My 2x gt grandmother married four times. The first three were all named John. On the latter three certificates she stated she was a spinster.

I've just got four marriage certificates for my great grandmother. I'm thinking she may have been a black widow. :-S
