Family Archives CD #525
This Family Archive CD is composed of images of the pages of eleven books
originally published by the Genealogical Publishing Company, all of which are
accessed on this CD by means of a single integrated index. Covering some of the
most difficult records to find in all of American genealogy, including early
census records, family histories, military records, marriage records,
immigration records, and more, it identifies approximately 60,000 Louisiana
settlers of the 1700s and early 1800s, including many people of French and
German extraction, as well as a mixture of Spanish, English, and Scotch-Irish.
This compilation is particularly noteworthy because the majority of the data
is otherwise inaccessible and covers a period of time when Louisiana was under
French and, later, Spanish control. Among the books assembled here are
compilations of Louisiana's earliest census records and a complete roster of
soldiers who participated in the Battle of New Orleans and the War of 1812.
There is also a collection of newspaper articles from the New Orleans Times
Democrat focusing on early French and Spanish families and a list of the
settlers of the "German Coast," west of New Orleans. In addition,
there are ships' passenger lists, military rosters, and vital records of births,
marriages, and deaths. The following books are included on this CD:
*The Census Tables for the French Colony of Louisiana from 1699 Through
1732
*Louisiana Troops, 1720-1770
*The New Orleans French, 1720-1733: Marriage Records Relating to the First

*The Settlement of the German Coast of Louisiana and Creoles of German
