Statewide death records over 50 years old are available from the state archives.  There's an online death index here:  http://www.sos.la.gov/tabid/640/Default.aspx Barbara Munson ________________________________ From: "bragi1@comcast.net" <bragi1@comcast.net> To: laorlean@rootsweb.com Sent: Sunday, July 8, 2012 7:25 PM Subject: [LAORLEAN] Avoyelles Parish After 10 years of waiting I was finally able to break through my family brick wall with the 1940 census. I have found two additional generations but I need birth/death/marriage records from Avoyelles parish. If anyone can help point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated.
