I'm sorry I forgot to mention that the health department was able to prove he (Henry
Burch) was buried at IOOF Riverview (I have it as Riverside but she said the name could
have changed). The historical society did say that the grave would most likely not have
been marked since the state poor commission buried him.
I did a little research after I spoke with them and it turns out that there was a
meningitis epidemic in 1929. I even found cases of other children around Henry's age
that had passed within hours of becoming ill.
