    Eugene H. Rochelle, Sr., was born in North Carolina and very early emigrated to Texas. He was a successful physician and surgeon, and began the practice in 1855 and continued until a year before his death. In 1862 he was called into the service of the Confederacy in the capacity of Surgeon, in which position he continued, and gave relief to many suffering and wounded soldiers throughout the war. In 1855 he married Catherine S. Anderson, in Clarksville, Red River County, Texas, but moved to Bowie County, where he died in 1885. He was a devoted father, husband and friend, and counted his friends by the score. His talents were unusual, and his nobleness of heart caused all to love him. His wife and five children survived him.
