I'm looking for any information on the Merritt family, said to have owned a sheep and goat ranch in Lolly(?) Louisiana. Specifically interested in parents of Linwood Lee Merritt, who was born in Pointe Coupee Parish; he married Ella Bradford around 1915 and died after having two children; the first is my grandmother Lynna Louise Merritt.

Looking for information on Frank Benard Porche, He is burried in Yoakum, Tx. He was born in 1887 but I don't know where. His daughter (my grandmother) had her ancestors written down on a piece of paper which was passed to me when she died.Most of the relatives that were given lived in Pointe Coupee. The only thing is I do not know his father so I can put the pieces together from him to his ancestors. There was a gap which would have been known by her but she had althimers for 6-7 yrs before she died so there was no information that way. If anyone has info it would be greatly appreciated.Kevin Foster foster400@aol.com
