Roseale Azalie Bellande (1854-1924) had the misfortune of marrying a man who deserted her. On January 29, 1880, at her father's house she married Michael Reus. She had three children: Joseph Michael Reus (Feb-April 1881); Bruno A. Reus (1882-1942) m. Neola Hanwick (1890-1971); and Marcellus Reus (1884-1905) m. Lillian ?.
While she was pregnant with her last child, Azalie went to her father's house for her confinement at her husband's request. During her absence, Michael sold their house and possessions and left. Azalie filed for divorce on grounds of desertion, and it was granted in August of 1890. She lived at her parent's house until the time of her father's death, in 1907. She inherited the house, but later moved to Mobile, Alabama, and lived there with her son, Bruno A. Reuss, and his family.
Azalie passed at Mobile, Alabama on April 4, 1924. Her funeral was held at St. Alphonsus Church at Ocean Springs with the Reverend Chauvin officiating. Mrs. Reuss had a large number of relatives and a brother that lived in Biloxi.(The Daily Herald, April 7, 1924, p. 3)
