Underground construction workers found a very thin wooden coffin covered with a glass lid. The well-preserved corpse of a little girl was discovered inside. His body under the garage was a mystery according to the interior edition.
A modified design of what the little girl looked like when she was buried.
Because the identity of the young girl inside the coffin is unknown, Erica begins calling her “Miranda”.
The sarcophagus was discovered buried about 145 years ago and sealed so well that the decomposition process was very slow. The purple flowers carefully placed in her hair, as well as the white lace dress, were still intact and well preserved as well.
The Garden of Innocence, an organization that provides a proper burial of unknown children, helped identify the little girl. Her name was Edith Howard Cook, and she died on October 13, 1876, of malnutrition, according to the Inside Edition. She was about 3 years old.
During the process of finding Edith’s identity, it is discovered that Erica’s childhood home was built over an ancient cemetery. However, in the 30s of the last century, all the bodies in the cemetery were exhumed and transferred to another cemetery. It is not known why Edith’s coffin was left.
Only a year after discovering the girl’s coffin under the garage, Erica had the ability to bury this little girl decently. The Garden of Innocence has captured Edith’s body and prepared for her a memorial service and a private funeral. They gave her a new handmade coffin and buried her in a new cemetery, according to the Inside Edition
