Hi Tracie,
By following Census and diary information on my family, they arrived in Nac. Par, which produced Caddo Par. Rush Island was a Census division as well as an area of land defined (Caddo Indian History doc) when the Caddo Indians sold their lands to the US gov and a dispute arose. It was settled as early as 1820s. The area that my ancestors were in became part of Red River Par when it formed after 1860. I have a copy of the 1895 Red River Par e-map that I can outline the area on, but, I would
Looking for information on my grandfather. The Carter family lived in Shreveport, LA from about 1920-1924/5. My grandfather was born Mordecai but left home at an early age and went by Clarence M. Carter, I have been told that the family was chased out of LA and was wondering if there was any information about the reason why they had to leave Louisanna.

I am hoping to get in touch with someone who would have access to old newspapers from 1913 that would have carried news (or obits) of Oil City, La. A distant cousin of mine supposedly was shot and killed over a card game there in 1913, do not have a month or day. His name was Tom Clyburn. He was buried around that area
Thanks for your response. No, I've haven't found any yet that have moved out that way. I'm just starting the research on HOOKS. My g,g,g,grandmother(Massey Henderson) maiden name was HOOKS and all I know at this point is that she had a sister named Barbara HOOKS who married (in Shreveport) a G. D. MOORE Dec 16, 1872. Hopefully, I'll find more info that could possibly link me to the Hooks you mentioned.
Sincerely,

I haven't located a Rush Island, but there was a PO at Rush Point in 1895. Check out the list of towns for LA at http://www.livgenmi.com/1895
Also, apparently there was a Rush Point Ferry operating between Caddo & Bossier Parish (see Rush Point, Caddo at http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/web_query.gnis_web_query_form) Perhaps the Caddo side of this river crossing was called Rush Island? There are several 'islands' by name in LA along the Mississippi River, which are not really islands, but the land wi

Wise who m. Edward Beverly Herndon, her brother William H. Wise's law

I called the only Pines Treatment center on Greenwood road and they are not
the ones. So I would suggest writing to the Shreve Memorial Libaray and
asking them. Please list the response on this list.
Thanks Elaine
