Anne Elizabeth Darwin died on 23 April 1851; her father had sought the water cure for her at Great Malvern, and her death reawakened his hereditary-illness fears.
Anne Elizabeth Darwin died on 23 April 1851. In pursuit of help from James Manby Gully's water cure, Charles Darwin had taken his daughter to the Worcestershire spa town of Great Malvern, where she was under treatment. The supplied passages associate her care with Great Malvern and do not state a death location; no passage documents a death at Down House. Her illness that year reawakened Darwin's fears that his own illness might be hereditary.
