I am looking for the grave of a baby girl born in 1941. She was born to my parents and died either weeks or months after she was born. During their lifetime they refused to talk about her at all and after their deaths we could not even find a birth certificate or death certificate. We had only heard vague mentions of her from other relatives. I received her birth certificate yesterday in the mail and we are thrilled..we had not even known her name. I have now sent for a death certificate but we would like to know where she was buried. Her name was "Mary Jane Bruce", born June 8, 1941. Her parents were Marvel Pearce Bruce and Chet R. Bruce. We know she was born in Pennington County, but not the city. For some reason that was not on the birth certificate. She may be buried in Pennington, she may not be...we just don't know. My parents moved away short! ly after her birth, although they were both S. Dakota natives. I was born in 1944 in Wyoming....and also named Mary but with the middle of name of Kay. If you have easy access to such information, I would appreciate either being pointed in a direction or find out if she is buried in Rapid City etc.. Thank you for any help or advice.
