Page 1 of 1 HCHS From: russell guerin [r_guerin@msn.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 01, 2004 12:36 PM To: hancock county historical society Subject: info on residents - "Along the Gulf' Dale: Please find separate e-mail for Lionel Adams. In addition, I have found that in 1891 he lived at 199 N. Rampart. After the trial of the accused in the Hennessy case, the mother of Hennessy named Adams to handle the estate of her son. That was in may 1891. Later, in 1893, he was an asst, district atty for Orleans. Info on others: Yenni - In 1892, William H. Yenni was with G.W. Sentell and Co., 190 Gravier St., NOLA, and in Bay St. Louis. In 1882, his residence was on Camp St. J.M. Swoop - In 1892, Julian M. Swoop was an engineer, living at 198 Lafayette St., NOLA. On 12-19-1890, the Daily Picayune reported that he had been involved in a benefit concert for the Newsboys Home; he served on the reception committee. John O'Brien - there are too many (eight) to be sure who had a house on the coast in 1892, but four are listed as "lab," which doesn't tell us much. Morris McGraw - In 1892, he was President, Morris McGraw Wooden Ware, selling wholesale wooden and willow ware, brooms, brushes, paper, cards, twine, matches, cordage, fishing tackle, seines, and fire works. Horatio Lange - In 1892, a broker on Varieties Place, and a residence at 295 N. Rampart. Earlier, in 1870, he is shown living on Henry Clay Ave. I hope this helps, Dale, but I know that it is quite sketchy. The one man on whom I could find a great deal more, of course, would seem to be Adams. If desired, let me know. Russell 10/19/04
