On Gravestone #3 Peter J May is my ggrandfather and I believe that"
Mamie" is his wife Mary Elizabeth Wingrove b 1875 with the death as around
1911 by family recollection.
As her mother was also Mary Elizabeth they may
have called her Mamie to avoid confusion. My Grandfather Daniel Harry May
was then raised by his aunt Eva Wingrove Roserag.
Marriage of Peter J May &
Mary E Wingrove
documented by letter (3 Dec
1985) from Rev. Roger Gallagher of the Holy Name Church. Wash DC?

This is an interesting picture. I'm not sure if this is Peter May with his first born
Elmer Nicholas May or his second Daniel May.
Family lore has it that Maime or one of her sisters was a seamstress who helped sew
President McKinley wife's inaugural gown and made a baptismal outfit from the remaining fabric.
If it's Daniel in the photo this may be a photo of that outfit. Craig
