Open questions touching these claims

• Are David and Thomas Frisby, named as Louise's sons in her obituary, also the sons of Thomas N. Frisby?

  Louise's obituary names her sons but not their father; obtain each son's birth record from the state birth index for the 1954–1975 marriage period (Louisiana or Colorado, per residence) and promote the parent-of claims only if Thomas N. Frisby is named.

• Eugenie DeCuir Mixon's parentage is now named by a tier-2 source, but only through a married style: her father's obituary of 27 April 1933 names his and Louise Landry's three daughters, one of them “Mrs. Tynes Mixon”. What remains is Eugenie's own birth or baptismal entry naming both parents, that identification at certificate grade, and the Landry bridge: through which Landry is Nanette Landry a cousin of Michael's mother?

  Louisiana Secretary of State vital-records index (births more than 100 years old) for Decuir, Eugenie, 1908, and the Saint Peter's, New Iberia baptismal register (Diocese of Lafayette archives): either should name both parents and would take the parentage claims from supported to a direct statement. Then the Iberia Parish Clerk of Court's marriage licence of April 1903, which names both parties' parents, and the death index entries for Decuir, Louise, 1927 and Decuir, Frank, 1933 — the latter also settles the 1880-against-1879 birth-date conflict. For the Landry bridge: Louise Landry's memorial names her parents as Albert Landry (1850–1905) and Eugenie Comeaux Landry and her brothers Leon Joseph (1883–1959), Edmond Norbet (1886–1949) and Paul Tillhou (1888–1958), so a John Albert “Al” Landry would sit among those brothers' children; trace that deceased generation in the 1910 and 1920 census before treating Nanette as a cousin through the Landrys. No search is run for either living Landry.

• Was Tynes Emery Mixon Sr. (born 11 February 1906) born in Louisiana, as the 1950 census schedule and the Mixsonian compilation say, or in Amite County, Mississippi, as his Find a Grave memorial says? No place is entered on his birth event either way.

  Run the Louisiana Secretary of State vital-records index (births more than 100 years old, so 1906 qualifies) interactively for Mixon, Tynes, 1906; the application rejects automated submissions. A Louisiana entry naming William B. Mixon and Myrtis Brabham as parents would also answer his parentage at record grade. Failing that, the 1910 Amite County census household of William B. Mixon, whose images are online but unindexed. Mississippi had no 1906 birth registration, so a miss in Louisiana does not prove a Mississippi birth; until one of these is read the birthplace is not narrated at all.

• Which record-grade documents fix Louise's 1954 New Iberia marriage, her 1975 Denver divorce, her 1991 Snowmass Village marriage and her 2000 Glenwood Springs death? Each is known today from a compiled profile, or from a single obituary that prints the day without the year.

  In order: the Iberia Parish Clerk of Court's marriage licence of January 1954, which names both parties' parents and would also give Thomas N. Frisby's parents at record grade; the Lafayette newspaper item of 1 February 1954 (subscription images only, so no URL is recordable); the Colorado divorce index 1851–1985 or the Denver District Court decree of 1975; the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder's 1991 marriage entry; the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment death index for 2000, the certificate itself being restricted, and The Daily Advertiser item of 4 October 2000. No online Colorado index covers any of the four. Each event is promoted to confirmed only from one of these; her death in particular stays supported until one document prints both the day and the year.

• When and where did Tynes Emery Mixon Sr. and Eugenie DeCuir marry? Their first child was born in New Orleans in March 1931 and no opened source dates the marriage. The one compiled lead found is the Mixsonian compilation's “About 1930, he m. Eugenie Elois DeCuier”, which cites a 1930 New Orleans census entry for Tynes: a tier-3 lead for this question, not an event.

  Iberia Parish and Orleans Parish marriage indexes for 1928–1931 (Clerk of Court; FamilySearch Louisiana parish marriages, sign-in), then the 1930 Orleans Parish census schedule. Their own obituaries would help as well: The Daily Iberian of 16–18 March 1981 and 15–17 January 1984, on Iberia Parish Library microfilm, should give the death places, the burials and probably Tynes's parents and birthplace. The couple itself is already proved by the 1950 schedule and their children's obituaries, so a negative search changes nothing.
