Notes for Samuel WILLIAMSON (Jr)

His death certificate records his profession as Hairdresser. As his father was a foreman riveter and boilermaker, I’d guess that his physical health was not good and precluded an industrial job, so he took on a gentler occupation.

Louis suspects that he died of Tuberculosis - his death certificate says ‘Ihthisis’ (phthisis is Greek for consumption).  He died young, and his death certificate states that he'd been ill for several years, so TB seems likely. Poor sod.
