June 7, 1939: Self-Induced in the Bronx

Today is another anniversary where all the information I have comes from a single death record.

Lillian Murbach Tremarzo, a 35-year-old white homemaker, died June 7, 1939 at Lincoln Hospital in the Bronx. The cause of death was pulmonary embolism, thrombosis of uterine veins, subacute endometretis, with a history of self-induced abortion. 

Genealogy records indicate that she and her husband had a 14-year-old son at the time of her death.
