John,
Thanks for bringing that inconsistency to my attention. I've noticed the census usually helps clear up things like that. I would love to be kept in touch about this and help if I could.
My great-grandmother was Mattie C. McDowell, daughter of Walter M (your ggrandfather's brother if I remember right).

there are a number of Houston family buried at Arcadia. I did a cemetery listing for Bienville Parish back in early 1980's and see a W W Houston buried there. There are no dates so that either means that they were below ground (marker sunk) or had worn off and were unreadable (often happens with Marble markers) Neit

Thank you for checking - The W W Houston could be her. Her maiden name was Wimberly - There is a Wimberly Cemetery in Bienville also no - on line records. I thought I might check there too. I'll eventually find him. I thought the Arcadia cemetery would be the most likely place -

my Bienville Parish Cemeteries are available in 4 small volumes from J&W Enterpireses in Shreveport. They have a link on line. Vol. 4 is for African-American cemeteries (or at least they appeared to be).

Thanks so much, I posted this to try and attract more of our family. I have all the information you have posted, but after researching Thomas and Mary Laster I am coming to believe that the information is wrong. One of the ladies that submitted the information was my great aunt Christine McDowell Ragsdale

I don't live near Bienville Parish but did index the cemeteries back in the early 1980's. At the time I did find Catherine Richardson at Sprinhill Cemetery 1817- 7 Dec 1903. I don't have a listing for the husband so he is either buried somewhere else, or no marker. There is no record of the other names you mention
