John Higdon was the 2nd child of Philip Higdon and Nanch Rogers. He died at the age of 1 year and 5 months. In the early 1800’s, many children died before the age of 10 due to the pervasive existence of diseases and periodic epidemics, most of which were poorly understood by medical doctors of the time.
