Moved to Bartholomew Co., Indiana in 1854. From find-a-grave, we see that they lost three children in 1862 to the "flux." Three siblings all died of "flux," about 1862 in Brown Co., Indiana. Flux was a 19th century term for severe diarrhea, most likely from some contagious illness. Their cause of death in contemporary terms would have been dehydration.
Their graves were moved to Garland Brook from South Bethany, along with their parents, on May 27, 1940.
