Roos, John born 3 Oct 1887 buried in Memory Gardens Sioux Center IA died Apr 19, 1895 (WPA index)

The Alton Democrat of Apr 1895 had some reference to this death form Diphtheria and there was quite a ruckus over the quarantine procedures before and after the funeral.

Note: From a report on ancestry.com (by others) Johannes Roos born 3 oct 1878 IA died 19 Apr 1895 IA son of Andrew A. Roos 19 May 1852- 20 Aug 1927 and Aaltje Schaap 11 Sep 1856- 10 Oct 1935. Children in the family were: Jennie Beernink, Johannes Roos 1878, Mary Te Groterhuis Bos 1881, Katherine Vermeer 1883, Jacob Roos 1884, Arie 1886, Wietske Roos 1891, Cornelius Roos 1893, Winnie 1896,

See the obit of the same child Johannes Roos 1878-1895 which states that four children died.
