Tonights talk (07/02) is by Joan Grundy. Based
on her book Joan’s ABC glossary of the ailments of yesteryear is a
layman’s guide to the terminology used on death certificates, burial
books, parish registers etc. She describes the cause of sicknesses,
their symptoms and possible outcome. However, are we becoming complacent
about diseases that could still, so easily, re-appear? The last case of
Black Death was in Glasgow in the 1900s!
