There is a small handwritten notation above his name indicating; "July 22, 1922 child here".
Published in the Lockport Union Sun and Journal on December 18, 1914:

Note: This last name has a variety of spellings in local records, including AIKIN, AIKINS, AIKEN, and AIKENS
NOTE: The New York State Death Index indicates that James E. Aiken died in Lockport on July 18, 1922. I can't find any record of James Aiken being buried at any other area cemetery.
Based on his date of death, I theorize that the child buried in this grave on July 22, 1922 is James Aiken.
