You don’t even need to go back that far. 1880’s to 1920’s will have lots of graves of those 10 and under.I agree. If you think vaccines don’t extend and improve our lives then do one thing. Go to an old cemetery with graves from the late 1700’s to mid 1800’s. Look at how many young people are buried there as compared to cemeteries from today. Certainly young people die today. But the rate is a tiny fraction of what it was back then. Part is improved sanitation, but the lack of vaccines is a bigger reason. Truly tragic people put their children’s lives at risk by not taking advantage of modern medicine .
Edit- I see finesse already mentioned this.
