Dail Alvin Sibbett said his father, Alvin Lewis Jones Sibbett, told him that Samuel
Alexander was away on business when Eveline went into labor with her last child.
She hemorrhaged to death. The midwife then determined that Mr. Sibbett could not
take care of a newborn baby with all the other young children he already had; such as,
a four year old boy--six year old twins—and five other children at home. She then
put the baby in another room and let it die. The son, Alvin, told Dail that he remembered
hearing the baby cry in the next room—then it stopped crying. When they
buried the mother, they put the newborn baby on her stomach and buried them in the
same grave.
