Hi, I'm wondering if there is a town in MO or KS called New Orleans? In a 1919 obituary that John found for me there is a person listed as being in New Orleans. I can't find him on the 1920 New Orleans census so was wondering if it could be a town near Kansas City. I know there is a California MO, a Nevada MO, so thought perhaps there was a New Orleans MO or KS also.

They are listed in Kansas City, MO District 9. Joseph's occupation is listed as dairy. I know he operated an dairy, not sure how big it was. May have been only a family enterprise.
