Individual Details

Vadie Delphine "Dell" Morgan

(8 Jan 1904 - 18 Apr 1976)

Dell's obituary mentions that she was buried in the Indian Bayou Cemetery. However, her name does not appear in a survey of the cenetery made after her death. I did locate the grave of her husband, Murphy Hoffpauir, on Row 3 # 10. There are 3 unmarked, infant graves on one side of Murphy's grave, and two unmarked graves on the other side of his. It is possible that one of the two unmarked graves is that of Dell.
