Follows Sister to Grave

Willmott Veal, 6 years old, died today after an extended illness. His sister, Emma Louise, 2 years old, died several weeks ago. It was while caring for the sister, while her mother was at the hospital with the little boy, that the father, W.P. Veal, contracted blood poison, which for several days threatened his life. His finger became infected when the teeth of the 2 year old daughter closed down on it the night before she died.

1910 Fayette Co. KY census:

Veal, Wilmott P. 36
Veal, Belle 27
Veal, Martha 4
Veal, Grace 2
Veal, Wilmott born about 1909
