Dear Judy, Here's a question for a Ryan descendent. :} A relative of mine was born in 1889 in Ryanville, LA. Later, this family lived in Edgewood and DeQuincy. Where exactly was/is Ryanville? A location relative to a current town or road intersection -- or even latitude/longitude -- would really be helpful. Do you know any Ryanville history? When/why/by whom was it founded? Was Ryanville a sawmill town -- maybe near a mill owned by the Ryan family? What happened to the town, etc? Thanks for your kind offer to help. Walt Rockville, Maryland
