Jesse L. Boucher
Jesse L. Boucher (January 7, 1912 – December 25, 2004) was a north Louisiana insurance agency owner and large-scale real estate developer who also served from 1958 to 1962 as the mayor of his native Springhill in northern Webster Parish.
==Early years, education, military==
Boucher was born to Henry Havis Boucher and the former Mary "Dixie" Coyle, a Cox descendant in the Bodcau community near Springhill, which had been founded in the late 1800s by his father and grandfather. He attended Shiloh School and graduated in 1931 from Springhill High School, as did all members of his immediate family. On September 11, 1940, he married Mary E. Herrington (born 1923), born in Crossett Arkansas in Ashley, Arkansas. His mother Dixie took her own life, 30 days after the death of her son Eli, age 16. She was suffering from depression over the loss of a child. Henry Boucher donated the "Boucher Cemetery" now known as the "Springhill Cemetery" to the city in her honor. The entire family is buried in the "Boucher Cemetery." This loss catapulted Boucher into building homes and developing land for the community and a sense and love of family and church.
As an outstanding football player at the end position for the Springhill Lumberjacks, young Boucher received an athletic scholarship to Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, then known as "Louisiana Normal". There he played foo tball, ran track and was a Golden Gloves Boxer, including participation in a conference-winning mile relay race. He was president of both his senior class and the NSU student body.〔
After he received his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1935, he taught and coached in Webster Parish for three years: first in the Evergreen Community south of Shongaloo, then at Doyline High School in the village of Doyline, and, finally, at Minden High School in Minden, the parish seat of government. He was also briefly employed in 1938 by Warner Brothers Pictures as a "ticket counter" before he joined his friend Wilburn Slack in the organization of the Boucher and Slack Insurance Agency in Springhill. The agency owned by his cousins Drayton Boucher and Allene Boucher, was transferred over for his then real estate corporation for a mere $333. Prior to World War II, he served for a few months as a captain in the United States Army Air Corps at Clovis, New Mexico. He resigned as captain and returned to the insurance agency. After the war began, however, he served from 1940 to 1944 as an officer in the United States Navy in Pensacola, Florida.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Boucher Company, Inc.: Profile of Jesse L.
