Ellen Elizabeth Wainwright was born August 24, 1894, to George Henry Wainwright and Rose Bourgeois. She married Sylvan (Jack) Ladner on May 29, 1912. They had four children: Hester, Lillian, Rose Mary and Kenneth Lavern.
The 1950 census shows Ellen and Sylvan living in Bayou La Croix across the street from Ellen's father, George Henry Wainwright.
A notable event in Sylvan and Lillian's life was their 50th wedding anniversary. They celebrated on May 22nd, 1962. The newspaper carried a short article describing the event:
"Celebrate Fiftieth Wedding Anniversary. Sunday, May 22. Mr. and Mrs. Sylvan (Jack) Ladner celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary Sunday, May 27th with open house at home of their son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Earl Sones. A large wedding cake centered the table which was trimmed with white and yellow blossoms. Mr. and Mrs. Ladner have two children, Mrs. Sones of Bayou La Croix and Hester Ladner of Bay St. Louis. They have 16 grandchildren and three great grandchildren. A large number of relatives and friends attended the celebration.
Later in life Ellen was known as Mamie.
