Born in Etzenrot, came to New Orleans in September 1852 with his wife Maria Anna Knebel Enes and daughters Brigitte and Theresa. He died in the yellow fever epidemic in the summer of 1853. He may be buried in Lafayette Cemetery No 2.
A cousin's report on the cemetery 3.15.2016:
"Haven't found any family members but have found lots of reasons why that would be the case.
One of the walls of the cemetery with wall vaults was removed for some reason in the 1920s. What happened to the remains is unknown by me right now.
Lots of tombstones were destroyed over time/weather or by vandals.
Many vaults are sold to new owners eventually.
Lots of these wall vaults are blank with no names.
There is no memorial stone or crypt for those who died in the cholera [yellow fever] epidemics that we can find or have been mentioned in guided tours."
