A son was born to Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Creglow on Saturday February 20. The angel of death took away the little one on the following day, causing great grief to the parents, who have with them the sympathies of his community. The little corpse was given to mother earth in the Remsen cemetery last Monday afternoon. – Remsen Bell-Enterprise, Friday, February 26, 1904, page 9

Another son died in 1894 and is buried in Mount Calvary Cemetery in Cherokee:
"The three months old child of Mr. and Mrs. W.D. Greglow of Remsen, died on Monday and the remains were brought to Cherokee yesterday for interment in the Catholic cemetery. Friends of the family here sympathize with them in their affliction." – The Cherokee Democrat, Wednesday, September 26, 1894, page 5

Delia was born on a farm in Cherokee county in 1864. Her maiden name was "Shea" per obit in the RBE, Thurs, April 12, 1928. She died suddenly in 1928 in California.

Notes: It seems the parents may have been Catholic, so the baby might have been buried in St. Mary's Cemetery in Remsen or the same Catholic cemetery in Cherokee as his little brother, despite the obit. Will gladly accept any corrections.
