See, I avoided reading this because I just knew I'd get upset. Too late. Poor babies (all of them). |

Hard to say....they must have lived in fear of it :o(( If you type the word ''died'' into the occupation box for Ancestry's 1881, there are several people who ''died Sunday night'' or ''died Monday morning'' etc Merry |
