Hi
I'm from pine bluff arkansas and knew the Cheatham's well. They did not use an S at the end of their names. Yes they are from Homer Louisiana. In fact, they had a son named Stephen Foster Cheatham who graduated from Hendrix College about 1976 or so. He died in a train accident about 3 years ago.
Mary, his mother was a Foster and he was adopted.
His adoptive dad was John, I think, but can find out later. They attended St. John A.M. E. Church on West Pullen and Cherry.
Did very well and were a part of the "social" educated set of blacks of the era. I recall an oil well in Louisiana. Ms. Cheatham was related to Dr. Foster (surgeon general nominee) as his aunt.
