Need help translating death record for Arnold Andreas Ludwig

Myke Rachu

Hi,

I found this death record via My Heritage. Record from North Rhine-Westphalia, Deaths 1874-1938.

This is the information given:

Name Arnold Andreas Ludwig

Gender Male

Birth Circa 1879  Klein Tarpen Kreis Graudenz

Death Mar 25 1920  Mülheim An Der Ruhr

Age 41

Father Oswald Ludwig Mother Ida

Volume pa_3103_21229

Entry #426

Also looks like his wife Augusta Alwina Wilhelmine Ludwig geb Hackbarth reported the death?

Questions: Does his wife have an occupation?

What is Arnold's occupation?

Cause of death?

Does it give his mother's maiden Name?

And anything else that I may be missing.

Thank you for your time, Myke Rachu
