Notes - Perhaps because I never met my grandfather, Ralph George Boyum, it is particularly satifying to learn about him. He died two years and three days before I was born.
Ralph was the grandson on Sevath Boyum and a son of George Martin Boyum and Rosamond Lucile Moshier. He was born on July 8, 1906, approximately six years after the family relocated from Mayville, North Dakota to Jennings, Lousiana. I have been told that he was actually born in Hackberry which is near Jennings. He was the third and last child and only son, both facts that he has in common with his son and my father, George Morel Boyum. They both shared the name George too.
The 1937-1996 social security index listed Ralph's social security number as 454-10-7920 issued in Texas and confirms his death on June 15, 1962.
Ralph George Boyum was very active in high school and college. From the Rice Shock, a 1923 yearbook from Jennings Highshool when Ralph was a senior, we find him involved in
, LA and college at the University of Southwestern Lousiana. He was Pi Kappa Alpha; Cheer Leader in 'b424, 'b425, 'b426; Snapshot Editor, L'b4Acadien; Joke Editor, Vermilion; Dramatic Club; Double Quartet; Vice President, Glee Club, 'b424, 'b425; Y.M.C.A.; D.F.C.
