Mr. and Mrs. W.E. Fleming mourn the loss of their infant son, born last week. The little one tarried with them only three days, dying Friday noon, but in that short time had endeared itself to one and all as only the choice or flower of the family could It was buried Saturday in the old Catholic cemetery.
~Allamakee Journal, Wednesday, February 13, 1895; pg 2

Note: a document attached to his FindaGrave memorial (possibly a death register), gives his name as William Patrick Fleming. The memorial indicates the infant is buried in Gethsemane cemetery, which is in conflict with the obituary. There is no gravestone for William in Gethsemane.

Many remains were removed from the old Catholic cemetery to Gethsemane, possibly little Williams body was one of them, but verification is needed.
