Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

Mrs. Rooney's formerly one-hundred and sixty pound body had been reduced to just twelve pounds worth of remains. Nothing else in the kitchen was damaged by fire directly, but most of the house's interior walls and furniture were coated with a "dirty, greasy, sooty substance." It was further stated that her husband had been asphyxiated by the fumes rising from his wife's burning body while sleeping.
(24 December 1885)



There are 3393 births, 3960 deaths, 1122 murders, 498 disasters and 2088 other events about 5748 people in 6461 places until today.
