Hi Cynthia, Good to hear from you again. We had spoken about four years ago and exchanged information on the Dortch, Day and Harwood families. I believe your line ran through Kathleen Harwood and Alphonse R. Minor. I will repeat some of the information I have on this family in case there is anything new you do not yet have. Kathleen was born 17 May 1889 in Warren Co., MS. She married 18 May 1911 in Warren Co., to Alphonse (Albert) Rost Minor. Alphonse was born 3 July 1884 in New Orleans, LA, and was one of several children of Francis "Frank" Octave Minor (b. ca. May 1847 in MS, d. 9 Dec. 1915 in New Orleans) and Odile ______ (Madeline M. Louise Odile Larue, b. ca. Sept. 1851 in LA, d. 6 Feb. 1930 in New Orleans). This family was living at 2331 Decatur Street in New Orleans in 1900 and Mr. Minor was working at the U. S. branch mint in New Orleans, which was also located on Decatur Street. (ED 75, p. 140, Orleans Parish). By the summer of 1910 Alphonse R. Minor had moved to Warren County, MS, and was working as a hired hand on Arthur Evans' dairy farm in Beat Four in the county. His name is recorded as Arthur R. Minor. (ED 69, p. 100, Warren Co., MS) Sometime after their marriage Alphonse decided to become a salesman. His occupation is listed as a wholesale commercial trader in 1920 and a hardware salesman in 1930. When the census was conducted in 1930, Alphonse and Kathleen were living in Little Rock, Arkansas. By then they had children: Albert [7], Marion [female, 5], Francis [3 & 2/12], and Stephen [11/12]. Also living with them in 1920 was Kathleen's mother J. L. [Jimmie Lee] Harwood, who was listed as being 53 years old, and a widow. (Pulaski CO., AR, ED 119, p. 211-B) By 1930, the family had relocated to New Orleans. Alphonse, Kathleen, and the four children are again listed in the household, but the daughter's name is now listed as Miriam. Mrs. Jimmie Harwood is still listed with Alphonse and Kathleen, so she apprarently lived with the family for many years. (Orleans Parish, LA, ED 108, p. 80) I do not know anything about this family after 1930, except that Alphonse died in Feb. 1942 in New Orleans (Orleans Parish death certificates Vol. 217, No. 1505 & Vol. 218, No. 1191), and what you have previously told me. Alphonse's obituary in 1942 should give some additional information, perhaps on the residence of his children who were all grown by 1942. If you know the exact date of death I can check in the New Orleans papers for the obituary. I do not know why he is listed in the death index with two death certificates. If you have gathered additional information on Kathleeen Harwood's siblings, I would be interested in that. Hoping you are doing well, I am...

Sincerely,

Jim Perrin Ponchatoula, LA

I am a descendant of this couple - I noticed on Roots Web that you added some important information about this family - how are you related? - do you have more information on the carter (and Dortch line), since there seems to be two carters that married into the family? I am descended through Frank(lin) Pete Harwood and Jimmie McCown Mr. Hoot has gotten most of my information and placed it in Roots web Can we share information?
