I have had difficulty as well. I submitted a marriage certificate that took months to show up on the archives, as well as one that was submitted a year ago. I received a reply stating that it would be updated shortly, but never has. I have other information that I think might be useful to others but felt that it was fruitless to submit and have been trying to figure out another way of getting the information out there. After reviewing the links for other parishes I have found that most are updated frequently and wish that Union could be included. Between the archives and trying to actually find the courthouse open, I have found that Union Parish is one of the most difficult for researching. ----- Original Message ----- From: Hudson, <mailto:HUDSONT@MAIL.ECU.EDU> Timothy To: LAUNION-L@rootsweb.com <mailto:LAUNION-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, December 20, 2003 1:41 PM Subject: RE: [LAUNION] 1920 Union Parish Census On Line Shawn, Thanks very much for the information about the 1920 census. I have also had tremendous trouble getting anything added to the site and a response from Mr. Jones. In fact, very little has been added in the past two years. When I received no response after one month earlier this fall regarding a submission to the archives page, I contacted Ms. Rhonda Smith, the Louisiana State Archives Coordinator. She responded that she saw no problem with the site and implied that the fault was ours by not sending him information. After the numerous times I have submitted materials to the site and never received a response, I don't know how to respond to her until others complain about the situation. My only suggestion would be for those of us feel so inclined to complain to Ms. Smith. Merry Christmas!

The new address is smarcmar@direcway.com <mailto:smarcmar@direcway.com> . Secondly, Karen Rice and I transcribed some census records for Union Parish several years ago. It has been so long ago that I forgot which years we did transcribe. About three months ago I received notice the 1920 census is now on line. The problem is, it has never been added to the Union Parish site. For those of you that are interested in viewing the records, you can go to the following address: http://www.rootsweb.com/~cenfiles/la/union/1920/ed132/ <http://www.rootsweb.com/~cenfiles/la/union/1920/ed132/> I have tried to contact Mr. Jones several times to ask why the link had not been added, but I have never received a response. Also, I tried to submit a record on the History of Canaan Baptist Church. I never received a response to the submission, and it still is not on the site. If any of you are interested in having a copy, let me know and I will send you a copy by e-mail. This information came from a pamphlet handed out at one of the "Homecomings" during the (I was told) 1970's. It is really discouraging when you find information you think may be helpful to others, and take the time and energy to submit the information to only be ignored by those asking for valuable information!!
