Have you lost some relatives?
Check the following two sites which list deaths of persons in Hospitals in
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
The listings included here have been compiled from data shown in the
[Melbourne] ARGUS for the period October, 1872 to December, 1877. The names
are, in most cases, accompanied by age at death, nativity, year and vessel
of arrival in the colony of Victoria, and the date and cause of death.
The listings have been divided into two sections, the first showing the
Alfred Hospital deaths, followed by the deaths at the Melbourne Benevolent
Asylum. For some reason, none of the Benevolent Asylum listings included
year of arrival or the vessel arrived in. The Alfred Hospital listings were
first published in the ARGUS, in October, 1872, and the Melbourne Benevolent
Asylum listings commenced in December, 1875.
Listings for April 1873, February 1874, February, April, May and December
1876 and May 1877 have not been located, and as such, are not included here.
Each name is cross-referenced by number to the actual date on which the
details appeared in the ARGUS. The reference guide is included at the end of
the list of names.
All details have been transcribed exactly as shown in the lists, including
spelling errors which occur often, especially where medical terms are shown.
I have included the year of death in brackets for clarity. A small number of
entries only show the individual's surname, and gender can be determined, in
some cases, through the details shown for that entry.
Happy hunting,
Mandy
Melbourne Australia
