Drayton Boucher
Drayton Rogers Boucher (March 19, 1908 – June 3, 1983)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Social Security Death Index )〕 was a Louisiana state legislator from Springhill in northern Webster Parish, Louisiana, affiliated with the Long faction of state Democratic politics. Boucher represented Webster Parish for a single four-year term in the Louisiana House of Representatives from 1936 to 1940.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Membership in the Louisiana House of Representatives, 1812-2012 )〕 and three terms in the State Senate from a combination district including Webster and Bossier parishes from 1940 to 1952. In the Senate, he succeeded Coleman Lindsey (1892–1968) of Minden, who in 1939 became lieutenant governor upon the succession to the governorship of Earl Kemp Long.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Membership in the Louisiana State Senate, 1880–2004 )〕
==Early years and education==
Boucher (pronounced BUTCHER) was born in Springhill to Robert Riley Boucher (born 1880) and the former Lula K. Rogers (1880–1909). The couple married on November 14, 1905. Boucher’s mother died before she was thirty and when he was less than two years of age, and his father subsequently married the former Carrie Cook. Three children, Drayton Boucher’s half-siblings, Gus, Rupert, and Alleane, later married to Floyd Haynes, were born from his father’s second marriage. Robert Boucher’s father and hence Drayton’s grandfather, Augustus C. Boucher (1850–1890), was a native of Harpersville in Shelby County, Alabama. Augustus’s wife, Drayton Boucher’s paternal grandmother, was Jennie B. Cox (1852–1885), a Louisiana native.
Boucher first attended Springhill High School but graduated in 1927 from a three-member class in a one-room school in Asherton in Dimmit County about midway between Laredo and Eagle Pass in south Texas, where Robert Boucher had temporarily relocated the family to become an onion farmer. (Since 1999, Asherton has had no high school; students are bused to the nearby county seat of Carrizo Springs.〔 〕) Boucher procured a scholarship as salutatorian of the country school and attended Sul Ross State University in Alpine, from which he received in 1932 a bachelor of science degree in biology. He was thereafter a lifelong promoter of his "alma mater" and on occasion visited former professors in Alpine.〔8-page Drayton Boucher autobiographical manuscript, in possession of Evelyn Aydell Boucher, Baton Rouge, Louisiana〕
