Handwritten notes, the Mixon Cemetery index and the Find a Grave interment list agree on Henry's identity and dates; no source asserts any relationship to the Mixon line.

Deceased: both cemetery sources give a death in 1956 and an interment in the Mixon Cemetery.

claim:henry-lewis-foster:birth:1birthbirth · 1877

The Mixon Cemetery index and the Find a Grave interment list both give 14 March 1877; the event carries the year only, because the exact dates for this group were deferred by the review and no record has been read.

claim:henry-lewis-foster:death:1deathdeath · 1956

Both cemetery sources give 23 December 1956; the event carries the year only, for the same reason as the birth.

claim:henry-lewis-foster:spouse-of:1spouse-ofspouse-of Myra Lucretia Carruth Foster

Handwritten notes, the Mixon Cemetery index and the Find a Grave interment list agree on Henry Lewis Foster and Myra Lucretia Carruth Foster as husband and wife, both buried in the Mixon Cemetery. No marriage record has been read and no relationship to the Mixon line is asserted.

Conflicts and open questions

  • Question question:mixon-cemetery-network:connection (open)

    How do John Edwin Mixon's sibling group (children of Millard F. Mixon and Milberry Elizabeth Cook), the Foster/Carruth family in the Mixon Cemetery, and William Hilton Mixon connect to William Bennie Mixon's direct line?

    Next: The one new observation of 2026-10-08 is a generation, not a link: Millard Fillmore Mixon (1857–1914), whom the compiled sources give as John Edwin's father, and James T. Mixon (1859–1937) are of one generation and share one family cemetery with their families. The 1860 and 1870 Amite County census images at MSGenWeb would show whether they were brothers, which would make John Edwin's group William Bennie's first cousins — a lead, not a claim, until a record states the relationship. Also compare the parents named in the FamilySearch record for John Edwin Mixon with J.T. Mixon's and William Bennie's households in the 1880 and 1900 Amite County census; for William Hilton, find a census household listing him with Tynes Sr. and their parents; the Foster/Carruth entries stay an associated network unless a record names a Mixon relationship.
