What is the cause of death for Eva Brita Salomonsdotter Korpi?
Eva Brita gave birth to a baby on 2 July 1837 who died 7 July 1837. Eva herself died 14 July 1837. What is the cause of death? These are Finnish church burial records, but they are written in Swedish.

I have been working hard to understand the writing & I feel like it's coming. I printed out & transcribed a bunch of christening records today & understood 90%. I think this is abbreviated though.

It says brösts which means bröstsjuka which usually means pneumonia but in case of woman recently given birth, it can also mean mastitis.

Thank you, @Heidi Kuosmanen . This makes sense. Her baby Salomon died six days earlier of unknown causes. This makes me grateful for modern medicine.
