Bepi?! That is a strange one. Hard to imagine how Levi got morphed into Bepi. Then again, I suppose the original records are in German script. Do you know if the Grubb's Church records have been published? Wagenseller shows some STRAUBs buried in the cemetery there, though not David or Anna Maria, unfortunately.

I don't know if the church records of Grubb's Church have been published. The Baby idea is good, that would mean it wasn't written in German.
