I believe this grave is unmarked. There is a 2 or 3 person gap in the row of Bambergs, alongside her father, where I believe she and Laura E Bamberg, and possibly one more person, are buried.

MISS CARRIE BAMBERG

Bamberg, Sept 30 -- Miss Carrie Bamberg, 70 years old and a lifelong resident of Bamberg, died at her home in this city Thursday night at 9 o'clock. Miss Bamberg had been ill for a long period of time and her death was not unexpected. She was the daughter of the late Major Seaborn Bamberg, for whom the town of Bamberg received its name. Miss Bamberg spent a very useful life, always, going to the assistance of any in sorrow or need. For many years she has had charge of Restland Cemetery, which work she did without any remuneration.

She was a faithful member of Trinity Methodist Church of this city. She is survived by one brother, Capt W S Bamberg, her other brothers and sisters having preceded her to the grave.

Her body was laid to rest Friday afternoon at 4 o'clock in Restland cemetery, the ceremony being in charge of the Rev S O Cantey, her pastor.

In the death of Miss Bamberg, one of the oldest residents of the city passes. She numbered her friends by the score, who will grieve to give her up. [Transcribed by Anna Richter]
