My Parents Moved to Louisiana in 1897
Florence Taylor recalls moving from Nebraska to Louisiana with her family in 1897. Four-year-old Florence and her two-year-younger brother traveled by train amid yellow fever and malaria epidemics. They settled in Lake Charles where their father taught, then moved closer to New Orleans for a better job. A kind hotel neighbor soothed Florence during her mother’s packing, as illness struck briefly.
