Several of the children died young, infant
mortality was high and there was a horrible
influenza epidemic raging.
John was born in June of 1874
(we're not sure when he died.)
Clara died in August, 1875
(and we're not sure when she was born.)
Alexander was born on July 1, 1894
(He was Mary's twin.) He died at birth.
We didn't want to leave their names off the
list, (although this is the only mention of
Alexander in these pages.) but this is
where their branches of the Family Tree end.
Eternal rest grant unto them, oh Lord, and
let perpetual light shine upon them. May
their souls, and all the souls of the
faithful departed, through the mercy of
God, rest in peace. Amen.
