I received this message from Find a Grave contributor DR SHEPPARD 5/11/14. The entire cemetery searched by Find a Grave contributor and could not find the grave. They also reported, specifically: This person is not listed in the cemetery index which means that they do not have a marker or it is not readable. MY REPLY: I will leave Johann Braun/Brown in this cemetery until it is proven he is not here, since the marker could either be unreadable or gone OR until someone finds them in another cemetery location.
