Charlotte Hoggatt Brandon Peirce
Nov 14 , 1847 - Apr 3, 1885
Young Charlotte was six years of age when her family moved into the newly completed Brandon Hall with her parents and remaining siblings.
Charlotte died in 1885, twenty-three years after the last of her young siblings had been laid to rest here. Atop her grave is a cross that reads "Mother". She was 38 years-old at the time of her death and living in Concordia Parish, Louisiana.
Charlotte married Joseph Caldwell
From what I have been able to find, none of the Peirce children had children of their own, though I have not been able to find any information on the daughter who purchased her mother's headstone.
