What is the word used to describe someone who has fallen in love with an individual who had passed away a very long time ago?

No, "Necrophilia" is NOT the word I'm looking for (before you write your answer). I'm not talking about a sexual desire here, or any form of sexual attraction towards a dead body. I'm talking literally falling in love with an individual that has long passed away (say over 100 years), even when one doesn't know what they look like. I'm trying to find this word, but all Google is giving me is "Necrophilia" which, again, is NOT the word I'm looking for. 

Does anyone know what this word is? I know it's very strange, but I have come across this question, and I have absolutely no clue what it is called (in ANY of the 5 languages that I know :P). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you :)

Forlorn

Sorry, these are all I could think of, and really they aren't great, but hopefully they will help you out a bit.

There might not be a word for that if no one else has had that experience.  You might have to invent one.

Meanwhile, I can say that reincarnation is real and maybe, you were been in love with this person.

Delusional aspirations.

Like how the singer of the song "Pictures of Lily" fell for a long-passed person seen in an old photograph?  I am not certain that there is a specific word for that.
