GenealogyLouis Rudolph PARENTON (±1885-1923)



Louis Rudolph PARENTON was born about 1885 in Asumption Parish - Louisiana.

He is the grand-son of Louis PARENTON, French who settled in Louisiana along Bayou Lafourche and the son of Joseph Alphonse PARENTON and Eugenie BOURG.

He lived in Plattenville - Assumption Parish in 1910, during the census and married there on June 21 of that year with Sara Roberts. They had four children:

- Robert Walter, born in 1912.
- Dorothy Mary Elizabeth, born August 20, 1913
- Louis R., born August 4, 1915
- Woodrow Joseph, born October 26, 1918.

The whole family moved to New Orleans and Louis Rudolph runs a grocery store there 3920 Gentilly Avenue.


But a burglary gone wrong 24 November 1923 and his injuries will prove lethal Dec. 20, 1923.

I thank Sara Trotter, one of his grand-daughter, who gave me the police report of this sad event.
