Who’s Louis Lagasse?
He’s my great-grandfather Dennis Lagasse II’s brother. I don’t have a picture to show you. Maybe I have one photo in my files, but since I can’t identify him, I can’t show it. Maybe it’s him in this picture…
I did this little montage in 2010 because I thought I had a picture of the elusive Dennis Lagasse II.
Now I am sure the mystery man is not Dennis. He could be Pierre or Peter Lagasse who was Dennis Lagasse II’s brother.
Could be?
This is the original picture. I have two photos in my files. These people are at a beach.
Louis died in 1928. He was the father of…
Dora Lagasse (1882 –)
Oscar D Lagasse (1884 –)
Louis H Lagasse (1884 –)
Wilbur G Lagasse (1888 –)
Joseph William Lagasse (1890 –)
Harvey Louis Lagasse (1894 – 1971)
Walter D Lagasse (1901 –)
Well that’s what I could find… in the U.S. censuses and on Family Search.
Louis Lagasse married Rose Myers. The Lagasses and the Myers are all related to each others. I know a lot about the Myers who were Lemaires back in the 1800s.
Since these pictures come from a descendant of Alice Myers who married Victor Philip Lagasse, then Louis could possibly be in these photos. I can’t follow up on all this because the person who sent me these pictures has stopped sending me pictures in 2010. I have tried to rekindle the interest but to no avail.
I undertand that my passion for genealogy is scaring some people away.
I will have to get use to this.
