  • Hi, and welcome to G&FH! Which line in which box are you having trouble with? Or is it everything that's visible?

  • Hi, I'm struggling with Lucy's surname in the second box and the word before certified by in the first box. Commented Jun 28, 2021 at 14:28

The cause of death is 'senectus', or put more simply, just 'old age'.

The grand-daughter's surname appears to be 'Brumley' (most of the letter-forms appear to match other examples in that sample)
