Roy, The Malenion at Ebenezer has the following dates on the tombstone.... b. May 6, 1861 d. Jan 31 1910 (according to the book pub by Pointe de l'Eglise). If this had been Austin's first wife, I would have thought her name would have been under the Dailey name, rather than the Hoffpauir name. Also, according to the numbers assigned in taking the cemetery census, her plot is B-6-30. The graves on either side of hers are of William Hoffpauir (b. Mar 10 1858 d. Mar 15 1923) at B-6-29 and Houghton Hoffpauir (b. Apr 3 1880 d. 23 Mar 1960) at B-6-31.
