Medical Notes: Husband - George WATSON
Under medical treatment from Oct 9 to Nov 9 of that year, died on Nov 10.
Hemiplegia lasted one week
Apoplexy is an old-fashioned medical term, generally used interchangeably with cerebrovascular accident (CVA or stroke) but having other meanings as well.
The use of apoplexy for the term stroke is derived from the fact that many patients lose consciousness during the acute stage of the vascular compromise (either through bleeding or ischemia). It is not to be confused with cataplexy (an attack of the neurological syndrome narcolepsy).
Occasionally, the term 'apoplexy' is used to describe hemorrhaging within other organs; in such usage, however, it is coupled with an adjective describing the site of the bleeding. For example, bleeding within the kidneys can be called renal apoplexy, or bleeding within the pituitary gland can be called pituitary apoplexy.
Hemiplegia is a condition where a vertical half of a patient's body is paralyzed, i.e. one arm and its corresponding leg do not function. It is usually the result of a stroke, although disease processes affecting the spinal cord and other diseases affecting the hemispheres are equally capable of producing this clinical state.
General Notes: Wife - Mary Ann GRANTHAM
Mother and Father's name not included on death certificate but they were both listed as having been born in England
In the 1911 census year of immigration is listed as 1860 most likely incorrect rounding of the date
Too many possibilities in the 1841 census, no clear choice
In the 1851 census there is a Mary Ann GRANTHAM born 1832 in Catwick, Yorkshire, England living same with father Thos. This could be here as Yorkshire matches the location and she was known to have not yet married George.
Medical Notes: Wife - Mary Ann GRANTHAM
Not attended by a doctor previous to death
Organic heart disease is one of a closely related group of maladies in which the heart, arteries and kidneys are more or less affected by degenerative changes. The chief of such allied conditions are apoplexy and nephritis.

Never Married
she had a Shoe Shop in Cottingham and this is described in the Cottingham Essays as:-
Hallgate - Mary Grantham's Shoe Shop - "Shoes and boots lined the walls of this gloomy, small, square shop in the centre of our village. The types of boots were mostly strong working men's affairs, as we had many market gardeners around. I don't remember Wellington boots; a thick leather sole and heel were enough to withstand rain and snow, and with a good sack over your back you could, and did, carry on your work in the fields.
People I remember had, on the whole, good feet, as soil and good leather boots could breathe. Soap was good, too, and large enamel bowls were kept handy for the mustard and soapy feet made ready for changing into leather slippers after work.
Most office workers or doctors wore button boots, highly polished with Cherry Blossom boot polish. Wealthy people kept a boot boy, and Mary Grantham kept good shoes and boots for these better class citizens.
We had, of course, a smarter shop, with carpet and chairs, where the Midland Bank is now. Mother took us three girls there for Sunday shoes, for Miss Grantham was very busy with goods for everyday wear. I was always amazed at the amount of boxes, - up to the ceiling. She had a small ladder to fetch the ones at the top. I wondered how she remembered where everything was.
She herself lived at the shop with her father. She dressed in black, with her hair piled high, and a shawl over her shoulders. She never smiled, and I remember her having an almost permanent sniff. But she knew her job, her boots were good and strong, and Mr Stroud mended them over and over again, going from house to house collecting and returning them every week". 26
