I would agree with what others have suggested in that some sort of illness was going around. Remember this is the time before immunizations and drugs which we have today. So when we get something today it is no big deal. I have come across many records where several members of the same family would die within a short period of time. Young children seem to be the most vulnerable to an illness.

I’m doing obits right now and I have two siblings, one 11 months and the other 15 days old that died 9 days apart in July of 1900. (July 20 and 29th) So sad. Out of curiosity, does anyone know of some disaster that occurred around that time on Santa Maria island? Sickness, earthquake, ??
