Subject: Need verification of a death year....

I need verification of the death year (1888) of Mary Catherine Silmen
married Christian Leimenstahl probably in the 1820's. I believe I got
this death date from one of the cemetary books. I could have miscopied
the year, though. They were buried in Lust Cem. I have seem many
variations on the spelling of Leimenstahl and am not sure which spelling
was used on the tombstone.

I have some other questions, too, if anyone with the info would be so
kind to answer.

The only two children I have for them are Mary Katharina b. 1825 and
Carl Heinrich b. 1831. Were there other children? Mary Katharina
supposedly married Michael Ludy. Where were these Ludy's buried when
they died?

The death year I have for Mary Catherine Silmen (aka Mary C.
Leimenstahl) is 1888. She appears in the 1870 Holmes Twp, Crawford Co.,
OH census. I can not find her in the 1880 census. Is the death year of
1888 correct? If Mary Catherine Leimenstahl/Liemenstoll is alive in
1880, where is she?
