Lavinia Stanwood Eisely - Madison Parish, Louisiana 

From Tallulah Madison Journal May 1, 1915

Mrs. Lavinia Stanwood Eisely

Mrs. Luvinia Stanwood, wife of Mr. George S. Eisely, died at her home in Tallulah Sunday night. 
Mrs. Eisely was suddenly stricken Friday evening and never regained consciousness from the effects 
of a cerebral hemorrhage.

Mrs. Eisley was sixty-four years of age and was a native Louisianian, having spent most of her life 
in Madison. She came of a family identified with the history of the parish and was beloved by a large 
circle of friends.

She leaves a husband, Mr. George S. Eisely, at present postmaster at Tallulah, two sons, Mr. 
Stanwood Alnutt, of Arkansas, and Mr. Bartlett Eisely, of Tallulah, and a daughter, Mrs. James L. Cason, 
of !Tallulah. A surviving sister, Mrs. Walter Bartlet, resides in East Orange, New Jersey.

While Mrs. Eisely had been in indifferent health for some time, her sudden death was a great shock 
to her family and friends, who did everything possible for her relief.

The funeral was conducted by Reverend Mr. Skipper and the remains were laid to rest in the Tallulah 
Cemetery. The services were attended by a large concourse of friends.
