Hello and welcome to my blog! Under the Nut Tree is a blog for genealogy enthusiasts and features anything and everything related to family history.
My previous post was about my ancestor's cause of deaths on my Father's side...now I'm going to take a look at my ancestor's on my Mother's side.

I have been to several medical appointments where it's been asked how my grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc have died. Common reasons are because of how 'at risk' you are to having a condition or disease. This is why I think it's important to know how your ancestors died. This led me to wonder, how many of my direct ancestors have a 'cause of death' in my family tree? Let's take a look!

Obviously, it gets harder and harder to know cause of death the further you go back because most places didn't start producing death certificates until around 1910-ish. When I get more cash on hand, I plan on obtaining a lot of these death certificates for great-grandparents and 2nd great-grandparents to nail down what their cause of death was. Most of my 3rd great-grandparents just had their name on a state death index, no death certificate available.
