Prosper Chedville
Mr. Prosper Chedville, one of our most highly esteemed and respected citizens, died on Monday, February 11, 1924, at the residence of his son-in-law, Mr. John S. Treadaway, at Potash, La. Mr. Chedville at the time of his death had reached the age of 78 years and 10 months. He was a native of this parish and well and favorably known. He is survived by two sons, Henry and Renoi Chedville, and four daughters, Mrs. Henry Martin, Mrs. John S. Treadaway, Mrs. Eustis Bayhi and Mrs. Chas. Lassus. The remains were conveyed to New Orleans Tuesday and interment made in Greenwood Cemetery. The Gazette extends it's sympathy to the bereaved family.

I got a copy of his death certificate, and apparently on the back was this obituary. No source info. It says "The Gazette extends..." so I would guess it was in the Plaquemines Parish Gazette.
