Dear James
I think it is unlikely that the grave was re-opened for anyone else's child
other than a member of the family.. The child may have been popped in whilst
the coffin remained unsealed.
If you know there is a child there then you must have some evidence to prove
it. Can you not work this out to the death of a stillborn child in your
family.
