Infants

.
After doing some work this afternoon in Section A I went over to pay my respects to the latest interment in the Cemetery. On my way over I looked down and discovered the monument for Robert Lee Ross who was on this earth just a short time. It is always sad to see markers for those who don't get to experience a full life.

I think Robert's parents are nearby in Section E. There is an Olive Ross who died on October 31, 1918, just 6 days after Robert's birth. Olive's husband (Robert's father?) George lived until 1933.







There are quite a few infant burials within the cemetery as would be expected for this time period. However, the ones that are the most poignant are the four that are found in Section A, Lot 127A. These four infants were all buried in this corner in 1930. All of these markers were buried at least 2 inches below current ground level. They are now visible for all to see and ponder on.
