Hi Listers, Have been busy putting up lots of new things. Several new cemeteries are up, and have added some new headstone pictures, and some entrances to some of them. If any of you have headstone pictures, you are willing to share, just holler. If anyone has old pictures of Beauregard Parish, either people, buildings, historical landmarks etc. Would love to post them. Hixson Funeral Home Index is up to 1942. There are new marriage records up......and still needing more. If any of you have family reunions coming up, there is now a page to post them. If you have pictures or stories of past reunions, send them in. Use of the search engine is definately picking up, and I hope the information that is going up is of help ----- the more information that is found and submitted, will make searching better, and more fun.
