"Name of Deceased: Larnice Conley (writing is highly illegible); Date of Death: 15 MAy 1875; Sex: male; Age: 82 years; Occupation: Farmer; Place of Birth: June 11th 1793: Cause of Death: Old Age; Attending Physician: none; Name and Description of Informant (blank); Date Registered: May 28th 1875 Madoc; Religion: (blank); Signature of Registrar: JN Ketcheson; Division: 15." Other records listed by Ketcheson are always marked by their illegibilty, missing sections, mispelling and other shortcomings. Lawrence Conley does appear on census records up to 1871 with details broadly consistent with the above date of birth, but he does not appear on the 1881 census. There is a strong possibilty that this death registration is his. - Leon Alekna July 2001.
