Childhood deaths in early 1866 (General)

In reviewing my family history on the Daniel family of Whitchurch, I found burials for several children who died in the period 4-3-1866 to 8-4-1866. Has any other researcher come across an epidemic or childhood disease which obviously had a high mortality rate in this period. The ages of these children ranged from 11 months to 9 years old.
