Frank L. Roe - Madison Parish, Louisiana

From Tallulah Madison Journal September 1, 1928

The death of Mr. Frank L. Roe, one of the oldest citizens of Madison Parish occurred at his home in 
Omega on Wednesday, August 29th.

Mr. Roe was born in Madison Parish in July 1848, and lived in the parish all his life. He engaged in 
the mercantile business in Omega. During his life he took an active part in the affairs of the parish 
and was at one time a member of the Police Jury from his Ward. He was also one of those who brought 
the parish through the trying days of Reconstruction.

The funeral services were held at the residence at Omega by the Rev. Mr. Rickey of Tallulah and burial 
took place in the Vicksburg Cemetery when Mr. Leggett officiated.

Mr. Roe leaves a wife and a son, Frank L. Roe, Jr. of Bastrop to survive him, to whom the Journal extends 
its heartfelt condolences.
