Some wonderful angel found the cemetery survey from Hancock Co, MS and she was on it. And then I rechecked "Find A Grave" and there was a picture of the tombstone. Then someone (another angel) from this fantastic, wonderful list send me a thing from the paper in New Orleans, called a Necrology Report, showing the following: 11/16/1909 - Mrs. S. H. Baumgartner. Bay St. Louis, Miss., Nov 15, Mrs. Saraphine Hepp Baumgartner died here Saturday (11/13/1909). Her funeral took place from Christ Church, in Front Street, Rev. Dr. Duffy officiating. Have not yet found an obit in the Bay St Louis papers, but eventually. Unfortunately for me, Mississippi did not begin keeping death records until 1912. Evidently when my Ggrandfather, William Allen Baumgartner, decided to move his family to Jacksonville, FL shortly after 1900 (they were all in that census) Seraphine went to live with her daughter and her family. Rosalie and husband Francois Marin. I even have pictures of those two with two of their children in MS. Merle, thanks for remembering my relentless & endless search for the lovely and mysterious Seraphine Hepp Baumgartner, my GGgrandmother.

We should always consider Hancock County, Mississippi, as a possibility. I found some of Marie Laveau's descendants living there at the turn of the 21st Century.

I had checked in MS because some of the family had moved there, I think that the info was not there yet when I checked. Another reminder to go back and check links over and over. The "Find A Grave" site, is just wonderful and they add info daily. I have contributed to this site myself. http://www.findagrave.com/ And have found dozens of ancestors burial sites along with info on parents and children.
