Capt Patrick McCormick..death

[Mike McCormick]

As you can see it is now 2 years of searching for the death cert of Capt. Patrick McCormick my Gt Grandfather.
I thought I had found it at Lambeth which I had mentioned previously but was refused a copy of the cert because the details I provided (From RWF Museum) were incorrect.
The same reference came up yet again on a search two weeks ago and the details seemed too similar to discount. It looked my only chance so I applied again. This time I provided just the basics along with my fee.
Hey Presto!!! I received a copy back with the wfes details perfectly correct confirming my Gt Grandfather as 1 RWF Quatermaster Cap. Patrick McCormick. Cause of death and place of death as LAMBETH not India s the Museum had stated. Death was stated as two days after the date The Museum had stated.

Would his widow have to register his death in Lambeth his place of residence? even if he died in India? Perhaps for pension or something similar? The death is certified by R W Garnham M.R.C.S, is it possible he was an Army Doctor?? or civilian? I will now search the Medical lists for a Doctor in that area for that time.
Any advice most warmly welcomed.

Well done Mike, this has been a long haul for you. Just to remind members McCormick was a close comrade of Luke O'Connor. I would have thought it fairly easy to identify the doctor. As you say....any advice?

Dr R.W.Garnham was a civilian Doctor so I am assuming Patrick died at home in Brixton.(Cert states Georgina, his wife present at death).
The search goes on.
Thanks to all.

I have just come into posession of details from the1851 census for Brompton Barracks, Gillingham. ALL the soldiers appear to be IRISH.
Can anyone throw any light on it for me?
