I am not positive about her whole situation but she lived in
Kansas. I believe she was in Portland visiting her son who was the
informant on the death certificate. But the donation of her body to
medical science seems a real possibility to me. She was not on a
poor farm. I <u>think </u>that after the body has been donated,
the institution takes care of the cremation and disposal of the
ashes after they complete their study.<br>

Thanks for all your help.<br>

Okay, I guess I was thinking in more modern terms, when medical
students didn't have to dig up their own cadavers -- medical
donations and "poor farms" probably did not have a big overlap,
time wise.

I was speaking more to "possible" uses of the "Other" check box in
terms of lost bodies.
