Ferguson, Lida Wilson (1917-2017) LSN

Taught at Oil City in the late 1930s and early 1940s. Here is her story, told by daughter Glenda Ferguson Toole.

My mother went to Dixie elementary school in Grades 1-3 or until they closed it.  It was a one room schoolhouse and she was the only child in her grade.  Then she went to Belcher until she graduated high school at the age of 15.  She graduated from Louisiana State Normal College at the age of 19.


Lida Wilson at LSN (1936)

When she applied for work at the Caddo Parish School Board, she was assigned to Oil City, LA.  She taught grades 1-5, whatever they assigned her in a given year.  It was her first teaching assignment and she stayed there for about 8 years until she married my father, Dr. W. H. Ferguson at the end of the war in 1945. She met him through his sisters, Ana Belle  and Versa that also taught at Oil City.  They dated about a year before he joined the service as a Captain.  He was overseas for over two years.  They married 10 days after he returned in January 1945.


She lived with Mrs. Will George, whose husband was the sheriff.  There were three other Oil City teachers that lived there.  Sydney Schliff from Baton Rouge and Vera Mae McRae were two of them.   She thinks that Ida Goodman was the other but was not sure.  They ate their meals with Mrs. Ruby McKenzie. The school was between the two houses.  They did not have cars so they had to walk everywhere they went -- rain or shine. During WWII there were not many men left to date and the teachers got together almost every night and played a lot of cards and did hand work (embroidery, knitting, etc.). She went home to Dixie almost every weekend unless there was something going on at the school that kept her in Oil City.  Her brother and his wife lived with my grandmother and he worked in Vivian, so he would pick her up on Friday afternoon and take her back on Sunday afternoon.


She and Daddy moved to Vivian, La where Daddy had his dental practice.  She was a stay-at-home Mom until she started substituting when I was in high school.  She went back to teaching full time when I was in college and retired from the Vivian Elementary School. She was very active in her club, Vivian Presbyterian Church, gardening, sewing, etc.

and Glenda Toole (right)

She moved to Friendswood, TX in 2011 at the age of "93" to a retirement home to be close to my sister and I.  She turned "97" in November and is doing well, plays cards and bingo daily and goes to all of the musical events that they have at her home.

Fowler, Charlie McKinney (1911-2005) LSN (1931)

Charlie as a student at La. State Normal School

Charlie was born November 24, 1911 in Rocky Mount, but her family moved to Hosston, LA when she was about two. She was the third child in a family of six.   Her father, Marvin Garfield McKinney, was a farmer, and did well enough to send all the kids to college (though not all went). She was 17 in the fall of 1929, and afraid that she wouldn't be able to go because of the depression, but her father and mother Idelia (né Kendrick) managed to send her to La. State Normal, as Northwestern State University was called then.  This is what she wrote:

My First Teaching Job

After attending college for two years, I received my certified teacher's certificate, qualifying me to teach elementary grades in Louisiana.  Nearly all of my friends had to quit school after two years and go to work.  Schools did not need any teachers and I could not find a regular position the first year after getting my certificate.  However, I did work nearly all the time as a substitute teacher in the Hosston school. 

After several visits to the Caddo Parish School Board office, I was finally assigned a position at the Oak Grove School near Oil City.  I took the place vacated by Miss (Jennie) Sullivan.  She had been there for a long time and decided to retire and go back to her home in Nashville, Tennessee.

The teachers in those days were barely paid enough to live on.  As a substitute, I was given $3.00 a day;  as a regular, I was paid $5.00 a day.  For one month's work, I received $100.  Each year of teaching we received an increase of about $1.00 a day.

I had to do everything, no aides, no helpers, skimpy material to work with, but one thing was in our favor:  we had very little discipline problems.  From these small rural schools came some of the finest doctors, lawyers, judges, educators, and just plain, honest, hard workers who became leaders in our communities.  And, I might add, these people were taught by my generation of "old fashioned teachers."

At one time the Oak Grove School had four or five teachers and a large number of pupils in grades one through six.  This school was located near Caddo Lake, amid a group of oil field workers.  These pupils were some of the nicest children I ever taught.  I had no discipline problems and even though I had lots of work to do in planning studies for three grades, I really enjoyed teaching at the Oak Grove School.

After two years, the school closed its doors and all the students were bused to Oil City. I was transferred there to teach the sixth grade.  There I remained for the next ten years.

While teaching in Oak Grove and Oil City, I boarded with Mr. and Mrs. (Samuel) Clyde (and Ruby Mabry) McKenzie.  They were two of the kindest people I have ever known.  Mr. Mac (as he was affectionately called) was crippled very badly with rheumatoid arthritis and became almost totally blind.   He was in great pain all the time, but never complained.  Mrs. Mac supported her family by milking cows and selling the milk and butter.  She delivered it to her customers each morning and night.  Also, she cooked wonderful meals and served breakfast, lunch, and dinner to sometimes as many as fifteen teachers and town people who had heard about her good meals. 

My roommate was a girl named Toppye Malone.  She was a saleslady for the Dixie Mercantile Company in Oil City.  It was through her that I met Clare, who was working at the Dixie; and who I later fell in love with and married. 

My dad was Clare Maxwell Fowler, and  they married in 1937 in Oil City.  He was called Clare by family, but he was teased about his name, so for work he was always called Max.   As Charlie and Clare, they always had to add to a note to tax returns, etc. to assure the recipient that the names were in the right boxes.  They left Oil City in early 1942, as he was drafted and they had to move to San Diego where he worked in a shipyard until he was shipped out to the Pacific. 

She loved her two years at Oak Grove teaching grades 3 - 6.  She used to talk about having 17 and 18 year old boys in her classroom who had never learned to read or write. She said that she made sure that they weren't embarrassed, and knew how to read and write before they left her classroom. Sometimes it was difficult, because kids would be pulled out of school to work on the oil rigs, or to take care of smaller children while parents worked.

Listed as an Oil City School teacher in this 15-Jul-1909 article appearing in The Caucasian announcing teacher assignments for the coming school year. Note the Caddo Parish School Superintendent is C. E. Byrd, for whom Shreveport High School would be later renamed.   In the 1910 Census she is listed as a boarder at the Norman Hotel with occupation of public school teacher.


The picture is as published in Sam Collier's book "North Caddo Parish" from a Myrtis School class picture in 1910. She later married Grady Henry Wells and is buried in Mount Gilead Cemetery in Vivian, LA.

Mrs. Warren's school history states the first teacher was a Mrs. Dean who taught in a one-room school house opened in 1910. Since that was approximately 10 years before her coming to OC, she was likely relying on someone else's distant memory when compiling, and I suspect Mrs. Dean is actually Miss Davis.
