I'm looking for info on cemeteries around Hooppole

George Egert b 25 Oct 1796 Wittiesheim, Alsace, Germany, now France- d abt 1859 (age 63)

Anastasia Yackley Egert b 22 Nov 1799 Wittisheim, Alsace, Germany now France- d abt 1878 (age 79)

Mrs. Remedie Miller died abt 1863, drowned in lake near Hooppole @ 17 years old. Daughter of George and Anastasia Yackley Egert.

The family lived just north of Hooppole, I believe, around Mathias Road or near there, where the lake have been drained. I've looked through St. Mary's cemetery and didn't find them. Are there other private burials around Yorktown or Prophetstown where they could be? I know St. Mary's Church in Loraine didn't organize until 1910, but I don't know when the cemetery there was started.
Any ideas?
