Genealogy is about documenting successive generations of ancestors using primary records whenever possible. At the Genealogy Department, our goal is to help you find those key documents. Our collection contains copies of many primary sources but the originals may be housed in churches, courthouses, and archives. Also, many records have been digitized and may be found online in genealogy databases. Click on the key records tab above to see a menu of available documents and basic information about those records. If you have questions or would like to make an appointment, please call 225-231-3751 or contact us at genealogy@ebrpl.com.
Web pages can also lead to information about key records and experts.
