Georgette Barbin was born in Marksville La. around 1916. She was the daughter of
Winton Aristide Barbin and Cecille Bize and was one of
eight siblings. She and Grandma were sisters and were very close but I don't
know that much about her. The last time I saw her was when I was about 10 years old.
She was a big story teller and loved to talk. I remember her fishing crawfish out of
the crawfish holes in Grandma's front yard with us kids.(see bottom left photo)
That was so fascinating to us. About a year ago I decided to try and look her up
to see how she was doing and I found out she had died a few years ago. I wish I
had gotten to know her better before it was too late. |

I need some stories and more details about Georgette to bring her story to life. I would appreciate any contributions!!! |
