Possible Epidemic in Clearwell (General)

by davidjkrichards @, Wednesday, May 20, 2009, 23:42 (5745 days ago)

Between the 7th & 11th April 1810 four young children of Thomas & Mary Jones died in Clearwell and were buried in Newland. This was their whole family. Is anyone aware of an epidemic of flu or anything else at this time.

Using the advanced search routine I have established the attached trend for burials at Newland

1807 63
1808 77
1809 66
1810 84
1811 63
1812 65
1813 73

Burials in 1810 do seem higher than norm but I have no evidence of any epidemic.
