Family History* UPDATED 07/20*

About the Marshall Trass Butler Robinson Families


The families were born in a small town in Newellton, Louisiana. We lived sided by side in the rural community of Newell Ridge. We worship at the Shackleford, Stonewall, and Shiloh Baptist Churches of Newellton, Louisiana. After high school most of us left for colleges and seeking better employment in cities such as Los Angles California, Chicago Illinois, Houston Texas, New Orleans Louisiana, and Atlanta Georgia; and some of our you men into the military. We have our grandparents, mothers, fathers, aunts, uncles, and cousins that were apart in our bring up. By the way we had many seniors that weren't related that told us what and what not to do; and we did as they said without question. We thank God for our family members who have gone home to be with the Lord. God Bless the 'Marshall Trass Butler Robinson Reunions'.
For this is our history
