Wow! Now that's going the extra mile, RC. Cathy In a message dated 4/3/2010 4:49:33 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, rc13@att.net writes: Kim..... Just got back from looking at the microfilmed, handwritten, burial records of SF. Found her. Mary Ayers died 28 October 1869 at Hamilton, Nevada of Pneumonia. She was buried at Calvary Cemetery (catholic) in SF. Due to the closing of all of the cemeteries in SF, all of the remains were transfered to Holy Cross cemetery in Colma. On Monday, I will go over to Holy Cross and verify that she is there. Hopefully, I'll be able to get photocopies of any records that they have and a picture of her gravemarker, if there is one. Do you know what her maiden name was?

I am very surprised you didn't find it, but at the same I am not surprised as well. This family is incredibly difficult to research! She died in Nevada, but was from SF area, and so her body was moved to the coast for burial. Not a single obit mentioned where exactly she was buried (and there were obits in Nevada, Hawaii and presumably California. I found something which mentioned IOOF Cemetery, and so I asked my question here on the list. I thank you for helping me, and I shall keep digging! Kim Golding Tacoma, WA Kim........
