    1. children's graves in Lutheran cemeteries
    2. Kerry Raymond
    3. Recently while photographing headstones in cemeteries, we have often noticed how children's graves in Lutheran cemeteries always seem to be together. Indeed the children are often buried separately to where adult members of their family (or at least people with the same surname) are buried. We have not noticed this in other non-Lutheran cemeteries. Have other people noticed this? Does anyone know why? Is it religious? Cultural? Kerry
