Most of the information I have comes from Rev Donald J.
Hebert's "Southwest Louisiana Records"
Here's a brief recap:
Oscar Gros and Melina Darden(this is the spelling in the book) were
married 11-13-1872
Then Oscar died 01-24-1875, and 9 months later their son was born:
Joseph Oscar Gros. (My great-grandfather, which makes Melina my Great-
Great Grandmother.)
Joseph Oscar Gros married Emma Morris in 11-19-1895
and they had 1 son & 4 daughters. She died sometime after 1910, and
he remarried and had 1 son and 4 or 5 daughters. I'm not quite
finished on his second family yet. By the way, Joseph & Emma's first
daughter was named: Maria Emily Melina Gros. If I can be of any more help let me know.
