Looking for information on James W. Tucker who married Mary Hester Headrick. Possibly married in Concordia Parish, as he lived at Jeffries Landing in 1912. Lived around Jonesville,Concordia Parish, LA when their son was born in 1914. Registered for the draft in 1917 and stated residence was Serena, Concordia Parish, LA. Was a fisherman. Died 1918 - 1919 in the flu pandemic. Haven't been able to locate a grave, death cert or marriage record for them. Am told by his grand daughter that James was buried in a vault above ground.

Hester Headrick remarried Robert O. Davis abt 1926 and had a daughter Lilly Nell. They are in Franklin parish in 1930.

Any help appreciated as the Tucker line is my direct line and this is the only sibling of my great grandmother who died without a death certificate in 1917.

Vital records can be great sources of genealogical information. Besides providing the name of the person whom the record was created for, vital records can provide a wealth of other information. Birth records at a minimum will generally include the name of the child, the date and place of birth, and the parents' names. Often birth records will include the race of the parents, their ages, occupations, birthplaces, and marital status. Death records at a minimum will contain the deceased person's name, and the date and place of death. However, they often will also include the cause of death, age at time of death, place of birth, parents' names, occupation, name of spouse, name of the person giving the information, and the informant's relationship to the deceased. Information found in marriage records can range from just the bride and groom's names and the date and place of marriage to including the bride and groom's ages, birthplaces and dates, their residences, and their parents' names.
To obtain copies of vital records after 1914 you can write the Louisiana Vital Records Registry at PO Box 60630 New Orleans, LA 70160. For more information about how to obtain copies of Louisiana vital records visit the Louisiana Vital Records Information website.
