Paul surname 1919 New Orleans, LA
I am new to this, but just found out that my grandfather was a college professor in New Orleans in the early 1900's.My aunt did an extensive family history, but I was very young and didn't take an interest, and now she is deceased, so I am starting from scratch.My father's name was William Alvah Paul.He was born in New Orleans on May 3, 1919.His mother, my grandmother, died in childbirth.Her name was Vita Padilla(sp?) Howard Paul.I don't know my grandfather's first name.My dad's brother was named Edwin Paul, and he was 12 years older than my dad.He graduated, I think, from the University of Texas, probably around 1929?He lived in Indiana, but I don't know what city, when my dad died.He has since passed on.Any info would be appreciated.Thanks.
