I came across the following TARDY info since I corresponded with you last.
You may already have this.The following is from "Magnolia Cemetery
1828-1971" by Helen A Thompson, published in 1974:
>From page 96:

Alexis Tardy, Sr.
A native of Bochelle (?), Fr

(Note: I will have a followup on him later in this message)

(Note: look for same followup)
Pages 213 & 214
J. A. Tardy
Coopwood's Texas Cav. CSA
John A. Tardy

John A. Tardy
1833 - 1902
Sarah B. Tardy
1848 - 1927
Louisa C. Tardy
May 9, 1868 - November 26, 1920
In the October 9, 2000 edition of the "Mobile Press Register", there was an
article on "The days of Duels in Mobile".The article is about the duel
between Alex Tardy and Col. Benjamin D. Layon December 23, 1874 near Grand
Bay (south Mobile County) in which Alex Tardy was killed.The article names
Tardy's second as James M. Williams.The article states that his widow was
Mary Tisdale Tardy and that he left two daughters (it named one as Clara, an
artist and writer).This article also refers to a statement by Alexis Tardy
Gresham (I assume this is Jr. since the one in the cemetery listing died in
1943), great-grandson of Alexis and Mary Tisdale Hardy, from an article done
of 1967 in this same paper.The article included an individual picture of
both Alex Tardy and Mary Tisdale Tardy.
