How did William Shakespeare's son Hamlet die?

Answer 1

Shakespeare had three children - Susanna and twins: Hamnet and Judith.

Susanna died as of natural old age.

Some people think that Hamnet died of the Black death or The Bubonic Plague but this is extremely unlikely since there was no record of any unusual deaths in Stratford at that time. There was no plague in Stratford at the time Hamnet died.

Judith also died of natural causes.
