It is unknown where she is resting. She probably is in Cedar Grove Cemetery in New Bern with her mother or possibly in the Blount Family Cemetery in Edenton with her father. Any additional info is greatly appreciated.
She is listed in the Christ Episcopal Church Burial Records. This does not mean that she was interred at Christ Church, but that her family were members and the rector performed her burial rites.
Only a few people were actually interred at Christ Church after the Yellow Fever Epidemic of the early 1800s. An untold number of yellow fever victims are buried in trenches at Christ Church.
About 1800, Christ Church purchased part of the land that was originally the Town of Dryborough, North Carolina on the edge of New Bern and established a cemetery. Many of the families moved their loved ones and stones to Cedar Grove. This is the reason there are so few grave markers at Christ Church. In the mid 1800s, Cedar Grove became owned by the City of New Bern.
