It's quite amazing but the recorded deaths are less than 10. Some reports have put the figure as eight - very precise for than era.

It can be argued that far more died because of inefficiency in recording, but the figure is still going to be low.

Far less than if the same catastrophe happened today.
There are NO recorded deaths due to the Great Fire of London. However, that doesn't mean that nobody died, just that the deaths weren't recorded.

I'm not sure, did 60 survive?
