Narrative

Clemma's son Robert was an infant death, born and passed on 26 Sep 1920; Clemma died eight days later, so it seems a safe assumption to say that she died from complications of childbirth.

It is interesting to consider there may have been a larger event at play in this tragedy, as son Gerald Edwin also died in 1920. I don't have a more precise date for him, but I have speculated that there may have been an accident that involved Gerald Edwin and his pregnant mother, the consequences of which robbed the family of three lives. Investigation into newspapers of the time would certainly answer the question for sure.
