I am looking for cause of death of 4 children buried in the Allison-Harrington Cemetery (one tombstone) south of Grand Mound, Clinton Co., Iowa. They died within 2 weeks of each other.
Albert Thomsen (Sep 1878 - 11 Oct 1889)
Caroline "Lena" Thomsen (1880 - 11 Oct 1889)
Alvina Thomsen (Feb 1883 - 19 Oct 1889)
Henry Thomsen (1885 - 7 Oct 1889)They are the first 4 children of Claus and Anna (Fahrenkrog) Thomsen who in 1889 also had a daughter, Amanda Thomsen born 1886, and Anna was 8 months pregnant with William Thomsen born 1890. They had 9 children in all.
Claus and Anna and family lived in Orange Twnp., Clinton Co., Iowa 1882-1890.
Their daughter Amanda married my grandmother's (Lena Kuchel Paulsen) brother. Anna is the sister of my great-grandmother, Mary Fahrenkrog Paulsen.
Can anyone help me with this mystery?
