Francis C. Thompson
Term-limited in the state Senate, Thompson is again seeking to return to the state House in which he formerly served for thirty-three years. Black Democrat Katrina Jackson, a state representative from Monroe, is seeking to succeed Thompson in the Senate. The upcoming election is scheduled for November 16, 2019.

In 2017, Thompson introduced legislation to name the Louisiana School for Math, Science and the Arts in Natchitoches in honor of the late state Representative Jimmy D. Long, who was among those instrumental in establishment of the institution in his role as chairman of the House Education Committee. After strong support in the state Senate, the renaming legislation passed the House Education Committee despite some opposition from alumni who object in part to the school having such a lengthy name.

"Charlton Lyons Is Named Treen Finance Chairman," ''Minden Press-Herald, July 13, 1971, p. 1. In 1966, Hall Lyons ran for Congress in the Lafayette-based district, but he lost to veteran Democrat Edwin E. Willis, a moderate Southern Democrat who supported President Johnson. Willis was defeated for renomination in the 1968 Democratic primaries by a more conservative Democrat, Patrick T. Caffery. See also note on Treen infra. Treen had run three unsuccessful but increasingly threatening races against Louisiana's 2nd congressional district representative, Democrat Hale Boggs, whose moderate voting record was symbiotic with his rise in the Democratic leadership of the U.S. House of Representatives. In an example of the law of unintended consequences, the overwhelmingly Democratic Louisiana legislature then redrew the district lines, placing Treen's precinct into the neighboring 3rd district, represented by the departing Patrick Caffery of Lafayette. Not long after the change, however, Caffery signaled his intention to retire from Congress. Treen had name recognition throughout the district and, although a Methodist, was politically at home with the 3rd district's Roman Catholic electorate, whom he continued to represent until being elected governor in 1979.

Betty Jane Gorin-Smith
n November 6, 2015, Gorin-Smith received the annual "Award of Distinction" from the Kentucky Historical Society to commend her efforts toward the preservation of state history. Earlier on October 10, she was named the winner of the "Edith S. Bingham Excellence in Preservation Education Award".

In 2019, Gorin-Smith was named "Citizen of the Year" by the Campbellsville Chamber of Commerce. Some have questioned the fate of Tebbs Bend when Gorin-Smith is gone.

Also in 2019, Gorin-Smith joined with Jeremy Johnson, a younger historian and genealogist, in the release of their new book, Campbellsville Taylor County, A History. Gorin-Smith notes that Taylor County had been part of three other counties, Jefferson, Nelson, and Green before it became its own entity in 1848. Johnson noted that a photograph of Campbellsville from the 1880s featured in the book resembles a town in the American West as popularized through film and television.

Jimmy Hawkins
In honor of the 70th anniversary of It’s a Wonderful Life, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences hosted a celebratory screening featuring cast members Karolyn Grimes (Zuzu), Carol Coombs Mueller (Janie) and Jimmy Hawkins (Tommy) and special guest Tom Capra. On a panel moderated by the Academy’s Randy Haberkamp, Grimes, Coombs Mueller and Hawkins shared their memories of working alongside Stuart and Donna Reed, who played George’s high-school sweetheart in her first starring role. The actors reminisced on the commute to Stage 14 in Culver City, the site of the famed Bailey household

NBC’s Today show celebrated the 70th Anniversary of It’s a Wonderful Life’s with a New York City premiere and TODAY's Al Roker joined Hawkins with fellow co-stars/siblings from the movie, Carol Coombs (Janie) and Karolyn Grimes (Zuzu) to talk about the film's enduring appeal at the annual weekend long festival in Seneca Falls, NY, the hometown of the It’s a Wonderful Life Museum.

From 1963–1967, Hawkins portrayed various characters in the first four seasons of Petticoat Junction, starring Bea Benaderet and Edgar Buchanan. He first appeared in "Little Train Robbery" (Season1, Episode9) as one of the young robbers, Lowell Rightmeyer. His most frequent role was Orville Miggs, a mechanically-inclined Hooterville teenager and potential love interest for tomboy Betty Jo Bradley (Linda Kaye Henning).

Another role was that of Jeff Maxwell, an Air Force friend of Steve Elliott (Mike Minor) in the 1967 episode: "Steve's Ol' Buddy". In another 1967 episode: "Author! Author!" he plays Stanley Harper, a beatnik & potential boyfriend to Bobbie Jo.

Morris S. Arnold
As a federal judge in the Western District of Arkansas Arnold presided over a conspiracy involving sedition and plotted murder of federal officials. Fourteen defendants were tried, Arnold directed a verdict of acquittal for one and the other thirteen were acquitted by the jury.

from William Edenborn
Early years

In 1860, Edenborn began an apprenticeship with a steel wire maker. After his arrival in the United States, Edenborn first settled in Pittsburgh, where he found work as a mechanic in the wire industry. He eventually made his way to St. Louis, where he built the first wire mill west of the Mississippi river in 1870 and married the former Sarah Drain (1856–1944) in October 1876.

Inventor

In 1882, Edenborn invented a machine that dramatically simplified the manufacturing process for barbed wire, as well as a new type of barbed wire that was less likely to injure cattle. These inventions brought success to Edenborn's company, which soon merged with that of John Warne Gates and ultimately became the American Steel and Wire Company, which held a monopoly on the steel wire industry in the United States. Edenborn served as the president of the American Steel and Wire Company until it was acquired by J.P. Morgan in 1901 during the formation of U.S. Steel.

Edmund Kuempel
One of his signal accomplishments was obtaining funds for the Texas Parks & Wildlife's 1988 restoration of the historic 1856 limecrete mansion Sebastopol House. It is an outstanding example of an early form of concrete widely used in Seguin, giving the town the largest surviving collection of 19th century concrete structures West of the Mississippi.

Jim Landtroop
Election of 2016

In his attempt to return to the legislature, Landtroop faces fellow Republican John Frullo. One of the differences between the two candidates centers upon Moderate Republican Joe Straus of San Antonio, the state House Speaker since 2009. In his term in the House, Landtroop voted against Straus as Speaker in 2011; since he entered the House, Frullo has backed Speaker in each election for presiding officer. Frullo has a large fundraising advantage over Landtroop. Between January 22 and February 20, 2016, Frullo raised $237,912, Landtroop, $58,845. In three campaign finance reports filed since January 15, 2016, Frullo raised $418,000; Landtroop, $132,000. Landtroop's employer, State Farm, through its political action committee, gave $7,500 to Frullo, the chairman of the House Insurance Committee, but nothing to challenger Landtroop.

Raymond Laborde
On April 7, 2011, seven weeks after undergoing a heart operation, Laborde appeared before the Louisiana House Appropriations Committee which years earlier he had chaired. He excoriated the plan of Republican Governor Bobby Jindal to sell off five state prisons to Jindal's significant contributors, GEO Group and Corrections Corporation of America for about $30 million each, far less than their replacement costs.

Laborde died on January 17, 2016, at the age of 88. A funeral mass was held on January 20, at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Marksville, with interment at St. Joseph Cemetery No. 1.
