Maybe to find in Johann Jakob Kaup - Der große Naturforscher aus Darmstadt?

The Eponym Dictionary of Birds claims:

Natalie's Sapsucker ssp. Sphyrapicus thyroideus nataliae Malherbe, 1854 [Alt. Williamson's Sapsucker ssp.]
Miss Natalie Kaup (DNF) was the daughter of German ornithologist Johann Jakob von Kaup (q.v.).

So the question is still when died Caroline Natalie Rosalie Zernin née Kaup?

Nothing new but an article in German mentions Natalie and her Father and Husband and mentions that JJ Kaup had relatives involved in the "Hessian Mission" in America. Americans describe this differently. This led me to a work by Rick Wright on BHL.
