Child of Mr. INGRAM. Reported age at time of death was 2 years, so evidently born about 1852.

Mary Jane Galer's "COLUMBUS, GA: Lists of People, 1828-1852, and Sexton's Reports to 1866" (2000), p. 202, shows: a child of Mr. INGHRAM (sic) died aged 2 years of scarlet fever and was buried 22 APR 1855 (from "April, May, June 1855, Sexton's Report of deaths in the City," dated 09 JUL 1855). [Note that, despite the title, these are reports of interments in the city cemeteries, rather than accounts of the deaths within the city. They include individuals who died outside the city of Columbus but are buried in one of the municipal cemeteries there, and they exclude persons who died in Columbus but were interred elsewhere. The sexton was Thomas NIX.] John H. Martin's "The Making of a Modern City: Columbus, Georgia, 1827-65," Volume II (1875), p. 85, reports a child of Mr. INGRAM (sic).

This grave is probably not identifiably marked. Based on the burial date, it would be in either the Old Cemetery section, Section 1, or Section 2, unless it was subsequently moved, as the balance of the Linwood Cemetery area had not yet been opened up for burials.
