They may not be from the same father!

You could add "bef 1910" for the death date.

Generally I add in double brackets in the SUFFIX area the name of the dad. This info in double brackets won’t print anywhere but it ID’s the infant for me in the name index. You could otherwise add the information in the couple’s marriage notes but it probably wouldn’t be as obvious to you there if your main purpose is to be reminded to search for these children.
