From the standpoint of a historical researcher, having at least one
unnamed baby listed can mean the end of the search.
I was searching in Myrtle Creek, Oregon for and adult named John Burris
Smith, buried in 1901. When the keeper of the records located at least 20
graves named "J. Smith," I knew the search had ended.
If no "J. Smith" had been in the records, I would have searched in some
other town, although I was certain he was buried in Myrtle Creek.

I have listed this type as Unknown ,"Our Babies"
alphabetically and then in my date column say...
No date, in the information column
I would say, No surname listed....
Include any helpful info about the positioning of the
stone, something that might help determine which
family they might be in.
Usually there is no clue and I am tempted to omit these..
I would like to hear someone else's opinion on this one.
