Pat I was going to MNH today anyway & it only took
a few minutes to look at KB Burials film. Could not find
Mary Ann's [ entry end of year on film ?] but the childrens' details are neatly set out in a chart entry &
the vicar never gave any details as to cause of death
for ANYONE {one newborn 's death had been referred to
church court}Every year has many babies & children. It
does seem there must have been epidemics in those months you mention affecting children as some pages only have one or two older people.
