Those markers for infants always make me sigh.
In all fairness to my husband, we've covered much of TX looking for his relatives. He has three Bradbury ancestors who were Confederate soldiers. My husband's uncle ordered the upright markers for the two men buried in Hempstead, TX years ago (in fact the uncle had their remains removed from a private field and transferred to Hempstead. This uncle is deceased; otherwise, I would have asked him all these questions.) The third Bradbury ancestor (all brothers)was standing watch in Galveston on a cold wintry night. He came down with pneumonia and died. He is buried in the old Episcopal cemetery on the island with an original stone ordered by his father in 1864. On his marker is listed his commander and the regiment. His father kept a journal through the years and in it recalled that he, too, fell ill before the burial and had to take to his bed at the hotel. He described the despair he felt hearing the horse-drawn wagon carrying his youngest son to the cemetery. He also wrote of the kindness of his son's commandeer who visited his son in the hospital. This journal is in the Special Collections at University of Texas, Austin. Amazing to think that the marker the father had made weathered the 1900 storm. At some point it was broken at the base but someone repaired it. My husband's family didn't know of this grave until the 1970s. What a thrill to find it. I wonder how it fared in Hurricane Ike. I haven't been down there yet to check.
Oops, I digressed from AR to TX. Sorry.
