The date of death of Shelah Garratt,born 1816, and his wife Harriet is given as 24 Sept 1893 for both of them.

Did they both die on the same day and if so how?

Could have been an accident or crash they were both imvolved in , I'm not sure but think only the death certificates will explan this or a newspaper item.

think this is the only way

be interesting to know why they both died.
not sure we can do any more with this one.
if you want to add the burials for a look up we can add them to the list
but not sure when they would get done.....

flagging now to archive pending more info
