search for Orleans or d'Orleans

shelly122263 — 31 Aug 2003 5:23:04 GMT

I am searching for any information on the Orleans or d'Orleans family. The only information we have is that my husband's grandfather (Charles Albert Orleans)lived in Enid, Oklahoma. And died there in approx. 1950. He was married to a woman who we were told was from eastern Oklahoma and that they had one son. But as to their names or whereabouts, we have no idea. From what we understand, they divorced and she took the child. No contact was ever made after their divorce.His second wife's name is Sylvia. They had one son, Charles Albert Orleans, born February 2, 1935. He now lives in Slidell, Louisiana. They also had 4 daughters, Sylvia Mae, Dixie, Jo and Betty. Any information that may help, would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Shelly Orleans

POW/MIA Korean War, BLUE

raysestak126 — 12 Jan 2007 10:08:45 GMT

I am searching for the family of a soldier who was killed in the Korea War. When he entered service he gave Orleans Parish, LA. as his home of record. His mother was Mrs. Mildred Smith. His remains were never recovered.

Soldier: Willie Earl Blue
Born: Jan 23, 1931, Black
Date of loss:August 31, 1950

When the Korean War ended the enemy never returned or accounted for over 8,000 of our servicemen. They died in their hands. That was over 50 years ago. Since that time DNA has been perfected and also they are recovering remains in North Korea. Our government is obligated to return those remains to the proper family. DNA samples have been obtained from most of the families of these missing soldiers. For various reasons some families have not been located. The BLUE family is one of those missing.

When the remains are recovered and identified they will be returned to the family for proper burial. I am just an old (76 years) Combat Veteran out of the Korean War and thankful that I did return. I consider this a very noble cause and I hope that you can help in some way to find this family. For more information on the project you may go to http://www.jpac.pacom.mil/. My part in the program is to match up the lost families with the proper agency.

I will be grateful for any assistance in locating this family.
