For this event, we gathered at the Lake Charles Civic Center’s Buccaneer Room for a hot breakfast buffet. The great food and friendly conversation were just the beginning of a much anticipated event. Master of Ceremonies, Randy Ewing kicked off the event for us with a welcome to everyone Rev. Jerry Hilbun gives the invocation. by Lake Charles Mayor Randy Roach, and an invocation by Rev. Jerry Hilbun. Daryl Altic, LMCH Therapist, was our first speaker of the morning. Daryl shared with attendees his story of how he came to work at the Children’s Home in Ruston. Daryl shared with us that he was originally from Kansas and came to Ruston to play football for Louisiana Tech University. While he was in school, his mother encouraged him to donate his time to helping the children at the Home. He had no idea what the children would be like, or what the Home was all about. The more he worked with the children, the more he realized what the INSIDE youth had been through. He described it as “the worst things you can imagine happening to a Volume 43 child times 1,000.” Daryl was amazed at the programs for the youth, and amazed by their Fall, 2007 happiness and their ability to adjust to life in the Home. While it was never what he thought he was going to do with his life, he is proud to be part of the Home still today.

The goal of the Lowe’s Heroes project was to beautify our grounds in front of Webb Hall. Webb Hall is our administrative building that sits directly behind an oak tree that is over a hundred years old. The volunteers worked from early morning until well into the evening hours. At any given time the volunteers changed out, but the goal remained the same. When they were finished, our grounds had been given a much needed face lift. The group did an outstanding job for our Home and were exemplary representatives of Lowe’s and their Heroes Program. Thank you so much to Lowe’s and all of their volunteers for making this project such a success!! Pictures are before and after the beautification project and of the Lowe’s Heroes volunteers.

  • James K. Faulk.Pdf
    Descendants of William Sr Faulk Generation No. 1 1. William Sr3 Faulk (John Sr2, Richard Sr1) was born Bef. 1760 in Edgecombe Co., NC, and died Abt. 1810 in Columbus Co., NC. He married (1) Sarah Abt. 1780 in Johnston Co., NC. She died Abt. 1799 in Bladen Co., NC. He married (2) (2) Rachael Futeral Abt. 1800 in Fair Bluffs, Bladen Co., NC. She was born in Northampton Co., NC, and died Unknown. Notes for William Sr Faulk: While the parents of James Faulk cannot be proved by written records CBS believes his father is William Faulk Sr. Records in Johnston Co NC prove that John Faulk Sr purchased land on both sides of the Little River in 1762. This deed was witnessed by John Faulk Jr. In 1769 John Faulk Sr deeded his land on the north side of the Little River to his beloved son Thomas. Although the actual deed is lost the Index to Deeds in Johnston Co., NC states that about 1780 John Faulk Sr deeded his land south of the Little River to William Faulk. Other records show William's mark to be a big "W". In 1772 Moses Coleman and his wife Lorena moved from the Johnston Co area to then Bladen now Columbus Co near present day Fair Bluff. CBS believes Moses Coleman is the Moses listed in a Edgecombe Co census along with John Faulk. The census taker lists both John and Moses as Faulk but CBS believes Moses last name was Coleman and the census taker made a mistake. CBS believes Lorena was a daughter of John Faulk Sr married to Moses Coleman and the census aker thought Moses was a Faulk.
