I've got a death certificate (1904) for one of my relatives. She apparently had something called 'Morbus Coxi' for 30 years. Does anyone know what this is? There are some internet results but they're all in German or Greek, neither of which I speak. All help gratefully received. Maggie

Sometimes because its in Latin, we get all excited and think it will be really specific and it turns out to mean dropped dead or some such. I think they have to be more accurate now. I've noticed that the more modern the death cert the more causes are put on it, as though one just isn't enough! nell
