Notes
My Grandmother, Helen May (Grogan) Patin, did not know her father very well, if at all. Although Helen appears on the U.S. 1920 Census with her mother and father, she was raised by her older sister Mabel M. (Grogan) Vautrain. On Helen's (delayed) birth certificate, she named her father as George H. Grogan. According to my mother (who helped get this birth certificate), Helen never said anything about her mother or father. Whether she was hurt or embarrassed or ignorant is unknown. She went to her grave with whatever secrets or information she may have had. As a result, we have very little information on George H. Grogan.
I have seen that there is a death certificate for a George H. Grogan that died ca. 1924 in New Orleans, Louisiana. That may have more information about my Great Grandfather. I've been meaning to order it. I'll get to it some day ...
