Ancestors & Decendents of Lois Louvenia Russell

This home page is dedicated to my mother,
Lois Louvenia Russell b. 11 Nov 1933 in Hattieville, Arkansas d. 21 May 2002 in Madera, California.
This project is a true labor of love.
I continue to research the surnames: Chronister, Crites, Davis, Duffee, Duvall, Hill, Presley, Russell, Stover, Thompson, Westerman, Wooten. At one time, all of these surnames lived in or near the Arkansas area.They, and others, make up our family tree.
My husband, Martin Coffey is researching his family's surnames: Coffey,Johnson,Rowley, McDermott,Montgomery,Shepherd,Hickey and Negri.These surnames are also included on this site.
Keep in mind as you look through our Homepage, it continues to be updated on a regular basis so please email us with any corrections, or updates.
