There’s an occasional white cross, or mossy, cracked headstones. But there are mostly no names on the burial markers for incarcerated children who died in government custody generations ago. And those are just the ones that are well known. According to a first-of-its-kind report released last week by Georgetown University’s Forgotten Children Initiative, there are 40 such sites across the country. They hold the remains of more than 1,000 deceased kids, and in some cases, babies.
