Biographical Sketch
Anne Durfee Gauss was born on 27 June 1876 to Charles Henry Gauss and Charlotte Elizabeth Johns, in St. Charles, Missouri. She moved with them to Austin, Texas, and Sedalia, Missouri. Anne never married. When she died 25 April 1932, she was secretary to the president of Lindenwood College in St. Charles. She was an intelligent and energetic woman and the collector of much genealogical material shown on this site.
From Bill Fawcett's book:
ANNE DURFEE GAUSS was born on June 27, 1876/77 in Sedalia, Missouri to Charles Henry Gauss and Lizzie Johns. She lived in Sedalia (until 1882), St. Charles (1870-72, 1882-85), San Antonio (ca. 1885-95), and then St. Louis. In April 1894 she made a copy of the family record in Joseph Fawcett’s bible for her grandmother, Henrietta Gauss (Letter H Gauss to LT Fawcett 4/19/1894). Ann lived with her parents in the Johns Home (701 Tompkins St) in St. Charles, Missouri (1910 Census #109). After her father’s death, she continued to live there with her mother and siblings (1920 census #312). Miss Annie Gauss died from heart failure on April 25, 1932 at 701 Tompkins (Steinbrinkers 1911-39). On the 27th she was buried in the Oak Grove Cemetery (Index 1919-44:29).
