In December 1849 Eddie became weak, and began losing weight or "wasting away". After 52 days of acute illness, Eddie died on February 1, 1850, a month short of his fourth birthday, very likely from tuberculosis.
Census records list "chronic consumption" as the cause of death, which is otherwise known as tuberculosis. However, it has been suggested that Eddie died of a different wasting disease: Medullary thyroid cancer, a genetic cancer syndrome, linked to Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 2B, which also may have been shared by his father and two of his brothers.
