He accompanied his father, Oliver Peter Zellner from Alabama to Florida to look for suitable land to buy. While on the trip, he and his father were caught in a yellow fever epidemic in Florida, and both died of the disease. To the best of my knowledge, no one knows where they are buried. Yellow fever victims were often buried in mass graves with no markers, and it is likely he lies with his father in one such, somewhere in Florida.
