My paternal grandmother, Elizabeth Von Gohren Delamain, daughter of the good doctor, and according to my information was born May 31, 1872 in Bay St. Louis, and I believe was married there to my grandfather, Ernest Charles Delamain.
My father, Frederic William Delamain, was born in Alabama, but was baptized at Christ Church (Episcopal, I presume) in Bay St. Louis on August 22, 1909. (I do have his Certificate of Baptism.) One of my father's older brothers was Ernest Von Gohren Delamain, born Jan. 25, 1904, died Sept. 23, 1935, (both dates from my mother's highly unofficial list), which obviously does not agree with the date you have from the cemetery plot. The 1993 letter from your society to my father showed Earnest's death as Sept. 22, 1935. I was born in 1930, and I vaguely remember a visit from Uncle Specks (Ernest) when
I	was very young. I do know that he lived and died in California.
