Details on deaths for a Romeo and Juliet obituary?I have to do an obituary for the characters that died in R+J. Can any of these questions be...

I do not think we have all of that information for any of the characters.  We have full names for Romeo (Montague) and Juliet (Capulet).


We know that Juliet was 14 when she died because in Act I her dad tells Paris that she is too young to marry and he gives her age.  Both Romeo and Juliet lived in Verona, Italy at the time of their deaths.  They were married to each other and neither had been married before.


We do not know the first names of either of their parents.


For Romeo and Juliet, the cause of death was suicide.  He died by poison, she by stabbing herself with his dagger.
