If three children from one family died suddenly of fever today, it would be all over the national papers. But, 150 years ago, all it merited was the most basic of tomb inscriptions and a single grave.
Poor Henry and Caroline - three daughters taken at one stroke, and quickly buried, here at Holy Trinity Churchyard in Oakamoor.
We don't know how fortunate we are, do we?

Interesting, I wonder if there is any family connection on my husband's side of the family ???
