For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.He died in 1792, aged 60, but as far as I can gather all the websites giving a biography of him list nothing remarkable about his death other than the large inheritance he left (over �500,000 which would equate to �200 million in today's terms).

and you will see a facility to e-mail the Arkwright Society in the bottom right-hand corner. I'm sure that they can tell you what you seek to know, or guide you to where it might be found. Sir Richard was only 60 years of age when he died, so his death may be from something other than just expiring.
