The McCall Cemetery in Grand Chenier is named for a pioneer Cameron Parish family, one of whose members, Thomas W. McCall, was for forty years the Cameron Parish school superintendent. Conway LeBleu, a son-in-law of Thomas McCall, was the state representative for Cameron Parish from 1964 to 1988. LeBleu and his wife, the former Virgie Annie McCall (1918-2016), one of the founders of the Cameron Parish Library, are interred at the McCall Cemetery.[3]
