This is as much information as I have at this point regarding births. I can only
presume there were several still births or infants who died when they
were exceedingly young given that multiple names appear in the same
year according to Census findings.

Death
Presently, I only know that Walter Ralph died
during the 1920's. I've been told he died during the
Spanish influence epidemic of 1918 but on the declaration
made by his wife in 1922 it states that she is
coming to 'join her husband.' By 1928 she is a widow.
