Aunt Ollie died in child birth and is buried with her infant child. My Grand mother said the child died first and they knew Ollie was dying also so a grave was dug. When Aunt Ollie Passed away it was already night time. It was supposed to be bad luck for the grave to stay open over night, so they had a night time funeral by lantern light. The grave must be unmarked but I plan to put a stone if the cemetery can locate the grave.
