Tombstone Tuesday: Infant Child Surpluss (July 25, 1905)


"Infant Child of J.A. and E.R. Surpluss Died July 25, 1905"

Birth: 1905
Death: 25 Jul 1905
Buried: Blankinship Cemetery, Butler County, Kansas

The initials belong to my maternal g-grandparents James Alexander Surpluss, and Elsie Rue (Hall) Surpluss. This was a recent "discovery" for me.  My cousin Tony who also does genealogy already knew about it and told me.  This one kind of hit hard emotionally.  Maybe the deaths of little ones are supposed to bother us?  This child would have been my grandaunt or granduncle, the sibling to my maternal grandmother.
