Funeral Records: Mattie Prothro, Sabine Parish, La. P-636 Source: Warren Meadows Funeral Home Records, Book 1977 Pg 120 Submitted by: Pat Berel berel@wnonline.net These are handwriten records, and were at times hard to read. Question marks were used where a field was not readable. Birth surnames were derived from the father's surname. If the father's name was not listed, the married surname was used in the Birth Surname field. Approximate Age is derived by subtracting year of birth from year of death when these are given. Mother's and Father's birthplace have been added to records after 1960. Many thanks to Warren Meadows Funeral Home for making these records available. ********************************************** Copyright.

Two of the entries are brother and sister. Mattie Prothro and Larry Locke were brother & sister. Both had the same mother and father. The father, William Frank Frank Locke was born in Arkansas, Woodruff county. Next of kin listed for Mattie was her sister, Hollis (Locke) Raab. I don't know if you want to add this information but it has been confirmed by family. Doris Locke (wife of Ceil William Locke, son of Corbett William Locke son of William Frank Locke who also was the father of these three people.) Thank you for this information. Things like this are very appreciate by families searching. --------------------------
