Daughter of John Frederick Vogg and Mary Hagerty. She was lost in the Matagorda hurricane.
From her father's FAGrave page:
"On 16 September, 1875 the family boarded their sloop to leave for the mainland for safety from the storm. Suddenly, the sloop was caught in a wave and flipped on its side, leaving the mast connected to the sloop and touching the bank. Hannah, holding her sister Mary Ann's hand, started walking across the mast when the sloop uprighted itself and threw Mary Ann into the water. Hannah grabbed the mast and held on. The family searched but could not find Mary Ann and was finally forced to seek shelter. John and Mary continued to search for her after the storm. They finally met some people who had found the body of a little girl and buried her. The dress Mary Ann had on fit the description the people gave, so the family accepted that they had lost Mary Ann."
