Lucille Haynes was my grandmother. She was born in 1896 either in Mississippi or
Louisiana. Her parents were Mary Cassell and Frederick Haines(died 1899 or 1900).In the
1900 census her mother is listed as Maurie Haynes(widow) and the children listed are
Dave,Monk and Dewey Haynes. No mention whatever of my grandmother,born the same year as
Monk.They were living in Lamourie,LA.The only child that shows up on subsequent census is
Dewey, who was killed at age 23.He continued to live with Mary after her marriage to
Bernard C. Brady of Rapides parish, LA.The first document with my grandmother,Lucille
Maude Haynes,is her application for her marriage license where she lists her parents as
J.W.(dead)and Nannie Haynes.She married Wilks Gordon McElwee and they lived in Lecompte,
LA for at least 50 years. If anyone has any information please contact me at
