This is a zinc stone located in the Union Grove Cemetery in Darlington, WI. This one has four names on it. A wife, a husband, a daughter, and son. The wife must have died giving birth to the daughter and son. And they only lived a few months after their birth. The husband lived on around forty years with out his loved ones. On the stone right next to this one is another daughter born a few years earlier that didn't make it either. Very sad.
