I have a distant cousin in Campbell County, Va  who lost four children in one week to diphtheria.  This happened between 1880 and 1900, I think.  I have been unable to find record of an outbreak/epidemic of diphtheria in Virginia during this period.  Does anyone on the forum know of one?
Thanks in advance,  John Cullom, Catonsville, Maryland.
