Yes, children were just as susceptible or possibly even more susceptible to the Black Death than the adult population. The Black Death, now known to be caused by Yersinia pestis, a bacteria carried by rat fleas, was devastating to Europe as it had not previously been found in Europe. It was likely brought to Europe on trading ships from the Middle East or Africa.

Possibly, possibly not. If the mother has the Bubonic Plague, the baby will most likely have the Bubonic Plague. Though, if the mother does not have the Bubonic Plague, then the baby will not be born with it.

Well, children were abandoned by their parents, and had no where to go. They were killed by the pestilence, and of starvation.
