Texas Flood Victims: What We Know

The flash flooding on the Guadalupe River in Central Texas has killed at least 109 people. The dead include 27 children and counselors at Camp Mystic, a Christian summer camp for girls on the banks of the Guadalupe River in Kerr County, northwest of San Antonio. Ten girls and a counselor remain missing.

The death toll is expected to rise.

On Monday, Mayor Joe Herring Jr. of Kerrville, the county seat, said rescue crews would push forward with their searches, slashing through debris and downed trees even as they braced for the possibility of more downpours and flash flooding. “This will be a rough week,” Mr. Herring said at a news conference, later adding, “We need your prayers.”

Here’s what we know about some of those who were killed.
