Dear Listers,
My g/m Beatrice Annie Williams was born in Simonstown 4 Apr 1895. While
searching death registers for her mother's death (Martha Annie Williams nee
Leak)between 1895 - 1900, I found what I believe was the death of my g.g.g/f
on 28th Dec 1895 - Charles Williams "watchmaker - about 60 yrs. old married,
who according to the inquest findings died from arsenical poisoning from
rough rats" Although the record stated "married" there is no wife's name by
which I could prove that he was my g.g.g/f. (His wife's name was Mary Ann
Clark). Can anyone help with perhaps cemetary look-up or suggestions?

Thanks so much,
Jenny Harries.
