    Morlas, Lucine and daughters
    This formal portrait of Mms. Morlas and her daughters was taken around 1918 in New Orleans. Her husband and her four sons were not pictured.

    Morlas Siblings
    Children of John Morlas and Lucine Roquevert

    Back Row: Leon Morlas, Juliet Morlas, Paul Morlas, Jennie (Morlas) Bishop, John Morlas, Leontine (Morlas) Zahn, Eleanor (Morlas) Rohli, Louis Morlas.

    Front Stella (Morlas) Trapani, Vivian (Morlas) Schoenfeld, Josephine (Morlas) McGuire, and Lucille (Morlas) Quinn.

    Only their sister Clothilde (Morlas) Bordes was missing. Since Clothilde had died in 1938, the photo was presumably taken after this date. It could very well have been taken at their 1951 reunion.
