Searching for information on EDWARD LOUIS DERENAULT; born in Illinois, where and when unknown. May have been Paducah's postmaster in the early 1900s. He supposedly committed suicide in 1907. His wife was Anna Harris Robertson DeRenault born 1865 KY, and they had one son, Lee Robertson DeRenault born 1890 in IL. The surname is sometimes indexed under RENAULT and occasionally even spelled RENO. I could not find them on the 1900 census. Any help will be appreciated. By 1910, Lee is living with relatives in Tennessee but his mother's whereabouts are unclear. He moved to Los Angeles around 1915 and she joined him around 1921 or so. I have this information verified; I am mostly interested in the death of Edward and finding them on the KY census for 1900. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you. Michele

Have found the information I need; he actually died just across the border in Illinois; he was calling himself Edwin Reno. Thanks.
