Louella Mae was my great-grandmother. She never married.

At the moment, I have no photos of Louella. Perhaps these have been lost to history.

Her only child EDNA was illegimate. The birth-father may have been a Mr. "Fish" or "Fisch" or some such spelling.

** My findings have been that John Bruce Fish was close by and stayed in the vicinity all his life. He's the right age for them to have been romantically involved. IT IS MY OPINION without DNA evidence or any other proof that possibly the connected "Fish" is the correct one. Hope this helps others. ** GenAngel. 2023
