Author notes: It appears that father Alcide Jr. was living with Hercules' family in
the front at 1228 St Mary St while his wife Cecelia and their daughter Cecelia
were living in the back of the same house with Lea's family, the Knoblochs.
Daughter Lea Marie Chauvin Knobloch had died two years prior in 1918 leaving widowed
husband Volney and three children surviving her. It looks like the entire family pulled
together in one house.
Cecelia Toups Chauvin died seventeen months later in 1921, so she may have been quite ill
and being cared for by her daughter Cecelia.]
