Understood. It seems it took quite a few kids in the area I grew up. This was backwoods upstate NY. I am sure there were quite a few adults in there, I just remember all the graves of kids since they stuck out more age wise.

Took quite a few infants and toddlers as well in the small towns.
First husband (RIP) and I were part of a cemetery reading project in rural Illinois many years ago. It was stunning to see so many family plots where mom and/or dad (usually mom) and several small children died within days/weeks of each other.
