I mistakenly said that the old Conveyance Office Books go from 1828 to around 1870. I meant to say they go until sometime in the 1970s. Carolyn Long
The Conveyance Office is no longer in the basement of the Civil District Court next to City Hall. It's now in a tall, black marble office building at 1340 Poydras, across from City Hall. The Notarial Archives Research Center is on the third floor of this building, I think the Conveyance Office is on the fourth floor, but ask at the front desk before you take the elevator. I'm assuming you mean the old Conveyance Office Books (COBs), which go from 1828 (I think) to sometime in the 1870s. Note that the earlier records will probably be in French. These are HUGE books, weigh about twenty pounds each. There is nobody there to help you find what you want or lift the books off the shelves, and they don't even allow you to move a chair over to the table so you can sit down ("fire regulations"!). I don't think they let researchers put the books on the copy machines, and as far as I know, there's nobody there to make copies for you. I've always had to copy the information by hand--while standing up at the table. It's been several years since I've been there--maybe the staff has gotten more helpful since. It's a complete contrast to the Notarial Archives Research Center, where everybody is lovely. The more modern conveyance records are on a different floor. The only time I went there, I handed in my request slip, thinking they were going to bring me the book to look at, and instead the clerk came back with a stack of papers and changed me $20--and what I got was completely unintelligible legal jargon--useless!

Hi All - Is there anyone out there who makes trips to the Conveyance Office (Loyola). There are some records I am trying to get a hold of. I have the Book and Folio numbers for them, just not the time to get there myself. I am willing to pay for the documents, as I believe it runs about 30 (or more) pages. Thanx to anyone who might be able to help. peggy Peggy Rooney [email protected]
Does anyone know when laws were enacted about what blood relatives could marry? We have been searching a family and it APPEARS that one young woman married her father's brother. I know at some point that, and first cousins, etc were prohibited from a legal marriage. Anyone know when? Thanks, Cheramie People say "High Maintenance!" like it's a bad thing.

Dee, I need your advise. Before Katrina I helped an African-American family in St Bernard Parish with their genealogy. They were sure their ancesters/relatives were buried in Merrick Cemetery in Violet. A search of the cemetery found most tombs/stones had no names, and I could not find anyone with with any kind of list. I have gleaned lots of burials for Merrick in the Times Picayune with the help of Genealogybank and wonder where would the best place to put this list for use for others doing their own research. Thanks Sally
If anyone happens to be in the area of this tomb, I would dearly love to have a picture of my ggg-grandmother's tomb. I will pay any picture costs but am hoping for a few digital pictures. Thanks.

This is extraordinary ... finally someone is memorializing the burial traditions of early NO society. In Thibodaux and I believe in some of the north shore communities, the cemeteries have be doing these reenactment for some time. Hope it is reenacted authentically and not campy. Carolyn, are you familiar with the founders (their names seem familiar to me, but I can't put a finger on from where) and do you belong? I have, for a long time, wondered why there have not been any books or even college thesis written on the subject of early burial practices, especially since there is a mortuary science curriculum at Delgado with an old cemetery practically on its campus and lots of others in close proximity at the end of Canal St. Even thought of doing the project myself at one time but after Katrina lots of things changed including moving to Houma and/or maybe I got lazy or scared that "the other side of the mud" was always closer than we think! ;-} -------------------------------------------------- From: "Carolyn Long" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, October 16, 2010 8:22 PM To: <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [LAORLEAN] November 1st Cemetery Security or Tours > St. Louis Cemetery 1 and 2 always has security, and there are always a lot > of people there.
