The record shows that Edese Hollier married Mercedes Couvillion some time prior to 1925, and that as a result of that union two children were born: James Clifton Hollier and Dorothy Hollier (now the wife of Leo Fontenot). Mrs. Mercedes Couvillion Hollier died in 1935, and in June, 1936, Edese Hollier married the plaintiff in this suit, Mrs. Dea Aucoin Hollier. No children were born of this second marriage.
James Clifton Hollier, one of the children of Edese Hollier, died in 1957, leaving as his sole survivor his widow, now Mrs. Betty Jane Soileau Guillory, and a son, Joseph Drake Hollier, who was born in 1956. Mrs. Guillory has been appointed as the natural tutrix of her minor son.
