Rosemary is one of those children whose life would have gone unaccounted for had she not been included in the obituary of one of her parents or another loved one. She was included in her Father's obituary and thus can be connected to him and the rest of her family.
Rosemary lived for but a short time, a little more than five months according to her Death Certificate. The last day of her life was spent at Marietta Memorial Hospital in Marietta Township, Washington County, Ohio, before she succumbed to death from acute toxemia caused by enteritis. Enteritis is the inflammation of the small intestine and sometimes can include either the large intestine and/or the stomach. A child of Rosemary's time could have easily contracted enteritis, as it is largely cause by consuming food and/or water that is contaminated with bacteria (Many of the homes, especially those that were rural, lacked indoor plumbing, not to mention electricity, until the later part of the twentieth century.). Other factors contributing to enteritis are inadequate sanitation, hygiene, and improper non-sanitary methods of preparing food.
