Her doctor granted a certificate to the effect that death was due to valvular disease of the heart, and she was buried in Kidwelly churchyard. Following village gossip aroused by Greenwood's second marriage, her body was exhumed, and an expert's examination revealed the presence of a small quantity of arsenic in the organs.
