I've found a book on Google Books about "Registration of the causes of death" and the index includes Ossification (vague) Of the heart valves - or arteries?
https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=...cation&f=false I suppose it's an acceptable cause of death on a burial record, though!

She is probably one of the few on that page who had actually seen a doctor and received some sort of diagnosis.

Yes, I should think so. Her family probably knew a few doctors since her grandfather was Dr Thomas Glass, "physician of Georgian Exeter"!
It turns out that John and Ann had two sons named William, the first died in 1784 in Southampton and then the second one was baptised 21 Oct 1786 at Walcot St Swithin. I found Charles's baptism there too, 25 Jan 1789. My mum, brother, and I went to look for Glass/codine gravestones at Walcot St Swithins a few years ago, but there was practically nothing of the churchyard and graveyard left. I would be kicking myself if I thought I had missed seeing the Lowder gravestones, but they will have gone long ago.

That book is very interesting. Clearly there were a lot of people who should have read it but didn't!!
