Louise Irene Swanson Bonham, pictured here at age 20, was murdered in McCurtain, Oklahoma on June 20th, 1991. She was 80-years-old.

Louise was found strangled in her own home. I found zero media articles about her murder which leaves us with very little detail to work with.

Louise was born in Blossom, Texas on September 5th, 1910. She grew up in the Haskell County area of Oklahoma. Her father was a French immigant. Louise had three sisters. She married Robert Degen Bonham in 1935 and went on to give birth to their only child born in 1939. He later did in 1956. We do know that Louise spent time in Eastern State Mental Hospital in 1950.

Please call the Haskell County Sheriff at 918-967-2400 with any information in the senseless murder of Louise Irene Swanson Bonham.
