Andrews Madison Parish, LA From The Tallulah Madison Journal (LA), March 18, 1938 A. N. Andrews, Parish Native Dies Last Week A. N. Andrews, a life-long resident of the Eighth Ward of Madison Parish, passed away in a hospital in Delhi on Tuesday night, March 8, about 10 o'clock. He had been in failing health for several years, and since last November his condition had been growing increasingly critical, the heart being involved. He was approaching his sixty-fourth birthday, having been born July 12, 1874, in the immediate neighborhood where he spent his life. The funeral services were held last Wednesday afternoon from the Mulhearn Funeral Home in Delhi at three o'clock, conducted by the Rev. H. N. Alexander, pastor of the Presbyterian Churches at Tallulah and Delhi, and the Rev. Mr. Holliday, pastor of the Methodist Churches at Crowley and Delhi. Burial was in the Masonic Cemetery at Crowville. A large number of friends, including many officials of Madison parish, attended the services. He was a member of the Crowville Methodist Church. He was a son of the late Captain Frank Andrews who had served in the Confederate army and played a leading part in the life of the parish in Reconstruction Days and up to the time of his death in 1909. Mr. Andrews was a well-known citizen of the parish and was influential in the affairs of the Eighth Ward, where he was held in very high regard as a neighbor and friend. Surviving him are his immediate family consisting of a devoted wife who teaches the Little Fork school, a son, James, residing at the home place, and three daughters, including Martha, who teaches at Baskin; Mary, who teaches at Gilbert, and Ado, who attends the State Normal at Natchitoches. He also leaves two sisters, Mrs. J. W. Allen who lives near Delhi, and Mrs. Ada Taylor of Enid, Oklahoma, together with a half-sister, Mrs. Eva Lloyd of Denver, Colorado. An only brother, Frank, died in Alabama several years ago. Mr. S. C. Taylor of Franklin parish, near Crowville, is a cousin. A large number of friends have deeply regretted to learn of the death of Mr. Andrews, and extend their sincere sympathy to the family.
