I received the death records of David Trine's family. The source of the records are the Butler County Records Center and Archives; Record of Deaths, Probate Court, In and For; Book 2; Pages 470 - 471. I've also provided a few definitions of the more archaic diseases.
Trine, Dave Sr. - 46 yrs old - Died of Consumption (Turberculosis) - June 15, 1885 - Madison Twp., Butler Co., OH
Trine, Dave Jr. - 10 months - Cholera Infantum - Feb. 15, 1886 - Madison Twp.
Cholera Infantum - Summer complaint. A disease of infants; indigenous to the United States; prevalent during hot weather in most of the towns of the middle and southern, and many of the western States; ordinarily characterized by excessive irritability of stomach, with purging, the stools being thin and colorless, or of various hues ofgreen and pink, but never yellow, except at the onset or during convalescences; fever of an obscurely remittent character; rapid emaciation; cold feet and hands, with preternatural heat of head and abdomen; dry, harsh and wilted skin; excessive thirst; and in the latter stages somnolency, the patient sleeping with his eyes half open; coma; the case terminating often with convulsions. [Hoblyn1855]
A disease that occurs, generally, in the Middle States of the Union, in June or July, and continues during hot weather; hence called the 'summer complaint'. The chief symptoms are vomiting, purging of green or yellow matter, slime, or blood, attended with pain or uneasiness, and swelling of the abdomen, with some pyrexia, generally. Differs little from what is vulgarly called the Watery Gripes in England. [Dunglison1874].
A dangerous summer disease, of infants, caused by hot weather, bad air, or poor milk, and especially fatal in large cities. [Webster].
Often fatal form of gastroenteritis occurring in children; not true cholera but having similar symptoms. [Wordnet]

Trine, Clara - 18 yrs. old - Died of Consumption - March 9, 1886 - Madison Twp.
Trine, James - 14 yrs old - Died of Erysipelas - March 16, 1886 - Madison Twp.
Erysipelas - Contagious skin disease from streptococci with vesicular and bulbous lesions.
An eruptive fever, called by the Romans Ignis sacer; popularly , the Rose, from the color of the skin; and St. Anthony's fire, from the burning heat, or because St. Anthony was supposed to cure it miraculously. [Hoblyn1855]
Redness or inflammation of some part of the skin, with fever, inflammatory or typhoid, and, generally, vesecations on the affected part, and symptomatic fever. It is also called St. Anthony's Fire, Ignis Sacer ("Sacred Fire"), the Rose and other names. [Thomas1875]
St. Anthony's fire; a febrile disease accompanied with a diffused inflammation of the skin, which, starting usually from a single point, spreads gradually over its surface. It is usually regarded as contagious, and often occurs epidemically. [Webster1913]
An acute disease of the skin and subcutaneous tissue caused by a species of hemolytic streptococcus and marked by localized inflammation and fever. Also called Saint Anthony's fire. [Heritage].
Trine, Laura - 4 yrs. old - Died of Erysipelas - Oct. 2, 1886 - Madison Twp.
It also says that all the kids except Laura were born in Madison Twp., Butler Co., Ohio. Laura was born in Poash? Town, Butler Co., Ohio.
David Trine Sr. was born in Trenton, Butler Co., Ohio
David Jr. (10 months) died in 1886 as well.
As you can see....the whole ordeal seems pretty tragic.
