First Name LOUISA, long "i": My Paternal Aunt Mary Lou (Braswell) Green, married to J.M. Green, a brother to Louisa. Mary Lou gave me this information today June 4, 2012 by telephone. That Louisa was her given name at Birth, that all her close family still call her Louisa to this day even though it says Louise on her Social Security Card. Louisa tells the story of her first name being changed by mistake by the people at the Social Security Office, but family says that's just not so because you fill out your own forms when you apply for a card. Louisa never liked her name and preferred to be called Louise. All non-Family know her as Louise and call her by that. So she is known as Louise outside Family. We will check what name is on her birth Certificate, but I was told she received what is called a Delayed Birth certificate so who knows what she could have put on there. So since Family Says she was BORN AS LOUISA and that's what name they call her by, that is the name I am listing her as !
