She was my Grandmother. His father's name was William Byars and his mother's name was Caroline. They were married in 1890. Caroline died in 1902. Louis L. Byars was born August 12, 1873 and he died December 22, 1967. My Aunt Rachel (his sister) compiled a list of his children and I received a list of their birthdates they were William Angus, Ralph, Slyvester, and Juanita Imogene whose mother was Oltha. When he married Olive they adopted Arnold Rodgers, had a son named Jimmy that died in infancy and then had Zelma Joan and Carol Jean. I hope this helps. If you have any questions I do have their birthdates. RJ
