Narrative
I have Charles named as a son of Leander and Grace Mary (Espich) Branstrator from both of their obituaries; the only Charles Branstators I can find on FindaGrave.com are both buried in Lindenwood Cemetery in Fort Wayne, Allen Cty, Indiana - a father and son pair, with the younger one (who was born in the right timeframe) outliving both Leander and Grace Mary. There is an infant Branstator buried in Loon Creek Cemetery, Huntington Cty, Indiana, with birth and death dates of 5 Jun 1901; the supplemental information on FindaGrave.com states that this is the "daughter of Lee Branstrator and Grace Espick [sic] Branstrator."
The only other child that preceded them in death was daughter Clemma (Branstrator) Helm, so I suspect that this burial is actually the son Charles, and is misidentified as a daughter on the website.
