The descendants of people, some of whom were buried almost 300 years ago, since the 1700s, gather at Mount Moriah Cemetery for a service to honor their memories.

This file photo taken on February 11, 2009 shows a one-day-old bottlenose dolphin swimming with its mother at Ancol water park in Jakarta.
An unusually high number of baby dolphins were found dead in the Gulf of Mexico following the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster, and a study April 12, 2016 blamed chronic illnesses in mothers exposed to the oil. The study probing dolphin deaths from 2010-2014 in the coastal areas of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama was published in the journal Diseases of Aquatic Origin. Researchers found "substantial differences between fetal and newborn dolphins found stranded inside and outside the areas affected by the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill," the study said. By comparing 69 young bottlenose dolphins that washed up dead in the spill zone to 26 others found in areas unaffected by the oil, the team found that the young dolphins, which died in the womb or shortly after birth, "were significantly smaller than those that stranded during previous years and in other geographic locations."
