Richard Cleveland Drew
Richard Cleveland Drew, Sr. (April 17, 1848 – December 21, 1919), also known as R. C. Drew, was a judge of the state district and circuit courts, based in Minden in northwestern Louisiana. The Drew family was among the original 19th-century settlers of the future Webster Parish, of which Minden is the parish seat. The first Drew arrived in 1818 in the Overton community on Dorcheat Bayou.
==Background==
Drew was born in rural Webster Parish to the former Sarah Jessie Cleveland (1828–80) and Richard Maxwell Drew (1822–50), an attorney, district judge, delegate to the Louisiana state constitutional convention of 1845, and state representative from 1848 until his death,〔R. M. Drew served in the House from Claiborne Parish, more than two decades prior to the establishment of Webster Parish, for the last two years of his life. The state mistakenly lists him as "R. C. Drew," instead of R. M. Drew. But R. C. Drew was only two years of age in 1850, when his father, R. M. Drew, died.〕 at the age of barely twenty-eight.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Drew Family )〕
Richard Maxwell Drew is interred at an abandoned cemetery in Overton. His epitaph on his tombstone, which was damaged several years ago by a dozer operating in the area, reads: "His public and private virtues have survived his death and will endure when this dumb marble shall have faded."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Overton )〕〔Inscription of Drew grave marker, Overton Cemetery, Webster Parish, Louisiana〕
R. C. Drew was educated at the former Homer College in Homer, the seat of Claiborne Parish. He read law under A. B. George and was admitted to the bar in 1872 at Monroe, Louisiana. He was a member of the Masonic lodge.
