Welcome
to this Louisiana Genealogy Trails
Website.
My
name is Janice,
and I am your host for Louisiana.
If you would like to submit data
for this site, please email
me with your submissions.
Happy Trails to you on your quest
for your ancestors.
This is a new site, fashioned
after our successful Illinois
Trails websites,
and we hope to soon add data here
that can help Louisiana
researchers as much as we've been
able to help our Illinois
researchers.
We need some help to do that
though - volunteers to host these
county websites. If you can make a
basic webpage, and you have a
desire to transcribe data for the
free use of all researchers, we
can use your talents!
Review our Volunteer
Information
and email
Kim.
In the meantime,
join
our mailing list
to be kept apprised of updates to
this website.
