Landry, Louis Elie, D. D. S., successful dentist, of Sunset, St. Landry
parish, was born at Grand Coteau, La., May 10, 1882; son of Louis and
Corinne (Smith) Landry.  The mother's parents came from the state of
Georgia and those of the father from Canada.  The latter has followed the
lifelong vocation of a planter, which business still engages his attention.
 The parents are yet in the enjoyment of life at the old homestead.  To
their union 7 children have been born, as follow:  Emile and  Maurice, now
at the parental home;  Louis E., the subject of this sketch;  Villior, now
farming in Lafayette parish;  Arthibus, in mercantile business at Grand
Coteau;  Deszolina, wife of Louis Kidder, farming at Grand Coteau;  Euclid,
at the parental home.  Louis Elie Landry received his early education at a
private school, which he attended during a period of 4 years.  Later he was
a student at St. Charles college during 3 years.  Upon the completion of
his academic education he entered the dental department of Tulane
university, from which he graduated with the degree of D. D. S. in the
class of 1906.  Shortly thereafter he began the practice of dentistry at
Sunset, La., where he has since remained and given his attention to a
constantly increasing practice.  The doctor is a member of the Psi Omega
fraternity, the 7th district Dental society, the Catholic church, and
Knights of Columbus.  Oct. 31, 1906, Dr. Landry was married to Miss
Madeline Miller, a daughter of Felix and Huenia (Marks) Miller, of Grand
Coteau, both of whom are natives of Louisiana.  Mr. Miller follows the
vocation of a planter.  To Dr. and Mrs. Landry 4 children have been born,
namely:  Rutland Yves,  Mary Carlette,  Ellie Hazel and  Adley Grace, all
of whom are resident at the parental home.  Aside from his dental practice,
Dr. Landry is interested in the drug business, and, in association with Dr.
Guilbeau, has an up-to-date drug store at Sunset, of which the former has
charge.  Both doctors have offices in the building.
