All I know is she passed away Nov. 29, 1925 in Cameron County. Thanks in advance for any help.
Dear Fellow Listers, I have a request that I am hoping someone out there can help me with. My great-great-great-grandparents are buried in Brownsville, I believe in the Episcopalian Cemetery and I am hoping I can find someone who wouldn't mind volunteering getting a couple of pictures of their tombstones. They are George Joseph Krausse who died on September 21, 1888 and his wife Augusta Henrietta Theresa (Brock) Krausse, who died May 29, 1901 and was buried June 1, 1901. I visited the Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness (RAOGK) website but there are no volunteers for Cameron County and it would mean so much to me. I am also wondering if there is a family history center located there where I might write for a copy of an obituary. Please, if anyone can help me out on this, it would mean so much and I would greatly appreciate it. If there is anyone out there who thinks they may be able to assist me in this, would you contact me of the list. I will gladly reimburse any expenses incurred on my behalf. Sincerely, Tanya Kloesel
