Biography

Luella (Maze) Strozier is a part of US Black heritage.

This profile is part of the Strozier Name Study.

Luella (Maze) Strozier migrated from Georgia to Michigan.

Luella (Maze) Strozier was born 27 Jan 1900 in possibly Greenville, Meriwether, Georgia, United States, daughter of George Maze and Lelar Watson.

She is listed as next-of-kin on R D Strozier's draft registration on 12 September 1918 in Meriwether, Georgia, United States, so she and R D married before that date.^[1]

In the 1930 census Louella (age 27) was the wife of R D Strozier in Flint, Genesee, Michigan, United States.^[2]

In the 1940 census Luella (age 39) was the wife of R D Strozier in Flint, Genesee, Michigan, United States.^[3]

Research Notes

• R D names Luella as his nearest relative on his 12 September 1918 draft card.^[1] This places their marriage before that date. Their "age at first marriage" answers on the 1930 census^[2] place their marriage in 1918, or at any rate 12 years before the 1930 census.
