On the 26 Mar 1943 in Brockton, Massachusetts, my great grandmother, Lucile Anderson, went into premature labor and was rushed to Goddard Hospital. There, she gave birth to a boy, who only lived for two minutes. He was buried the next day in Melrose Cemetery.
Although his death certificate lists him as being buried in Melrose Cemetery, no records of the burial exist.
So sad! Today there would be a good chance that little boy would have survived a premature birth.
