Five children aged between 10 months and three have been identified as being among seven victims of a house fire in Kentucky.
A pregnant mother and her fiance also died in the Saturday morning blaze that engulfed the home in Gray, a close-knit community in the Appalachian foothills near the borders of Tennessee and Virginia.
Relatives raced to the house - owned by the Disney family in an area affectionately known as "Disneyland" because so many of them live in that part of town.
Despite their frantic rescue efforts, all seven people inside died.
Shannon Disney, a sister-in-law of one of the victims, described the couple as devoted to the children and excited about the arrival of their unborn baby.
Foul play is not suspected, say investigators Gino Cima, the uncle of the man who died, said he suspected his nephew had been trying to save the children.
He said: "When I opened the screen door, she (the mother) was laying at the door with her head to the door and I pulled her out.
"And about two feet from her laying the other way was (my nephew). I went in and got him and pulled him out. But they were done, gone. There was nothing I could do."
Relatives said the nephew's partner was the mother of three of the children who died.
The other two children were siblings on a sleepover at the house.
The cause of the fire is under investigation, although foul play is not suspected.
