Elizabeth Poe died of an unspecified illness, which was probably pneumonia on December 8, 1811. Assumptions have been made that she died of tuberculosis, but there is no evidence that she ever had TB. On the other hand, in 1890, a family member made a statement that Mrs. Poe died when she was sick with pneumonia. There is no death certificate stating a cause of death, but pneumonia is the most likely one.
