1. [LASTLAND] Glaze [1]
Hi, I'm looking for information on W. M. Glaze (my great great grandfather), formerly of St. Landry Parish. He was born in LA about 20 Mar 1846. He is listed as being a resident of St. Landry Parish when he was surrendered at New Orleans on 26 May 1865, and paroled at Alexandria on 8 Jun 1865. He was a private in Company G, 8th Louisiana Cavalry. Any assistance would be appreciated, I'm having a very difficult time finding anything on him!

Don, You might want to contact Mike Doucet of Beausoleil or Barry Jean Ancelet. Mike as you know taught a French music course at the USL now UL of Laf in the early 80's. Barry is working there at this time. He is listed at the UL of Laf site under "Staff". They have done extensive research on the origins of Cajun music.

13. [LASTLAND] The Cajun Cattle Ranch or "Vacherie" [1]
Vacherie Vacherie is the Cajun French word for "cattle ranch" (from the French vache, meaning "cow"). The Cajuns' earliest Louisiana ancestors excelled at cattle ranching, having learned it in Acadia, where at the time of the expulsion had amassed approximately 118,000 head of livestock. When they arrived in louisiana, the Spanish were quick to take advantage of this skill which resulted in what was called the "Dauterive Contract" Where they were given breeding stock and supplies for a year
14. [LASTLAND] "Courir de Mardi Gras" [1]
I've been told that the "Courir de Mardi Gras" is fashioned after a medieval France holiday know as "Fete de Quemander" (quemander is French fo begging). It was a holiday that the peasants were permitted to dress, mock and imitate royalty, without fear of consequences. They would dress in outlandish costumes with cone shaped hats on their heads (noble upper class wore these). During the "Courir de Mardi Gras" in Mamou, Iota and other southwest Louisiana communities, there is a chant that is repeated
15. [LASTLAND] Acadian costumes [1]
I am researching the clothing of the pre-expulsion Acadian and the 18th and 19th century Louisiana Acadian (Cajun). I am finding it difficult to find sketches of authentic Acadian clothing of this period. Since "Evangeline", has become the image that has been branded in the minds of most people, the clothes that she is shown wearing in the many drawings and/or paintings that have accompanied the publications of Longfellow's Epic Poem. I would like very much to receive sketches of the clothing worn by

20. Re: [LASTLAND] GLAZE [1]
Hi Lorrie, Probably won't do you much good, but I have a James Bredin GLAZE, born in South Carolina, and married into my BRASHEARs family. He was married to my maternal 4th great-aunt, Dryden BRASHEAR, in May of 1827 in St. Landry Parish. Could he be part of your family? He only had 3 children, and only one of them was a boy, another James - too young to be a father to your g-g- grandfather. James Bredin GLAZE's parents were Zachariah GLAZE & Mary BREDIN; maybe another of their children, of whom I'm unawar
21. [LASTLAND] Bihm Family [1]
I am a descendant of Lejeune/Young family, and I am trying to get information about Jacob Bihm, who married Marie Ritter and who was the father of Marie Louise (Louisa) Bihm who married Jean-Baptiste Lejeune/Young in 1807 in St. Landry Church, Opelousas. Does anyone know where in Germany Jacob Bihm was from? All that I have found is that Jacob was born about 1744 in Germany and arrived in Louisiana in 1780 with a group of 60 German and Irish refugees from Fort Pitt. (John A. Young's book) Thanks for
22. [LASTLAND] The Acadians in the Civil War [1]
The Acadians in the Civil War Like other southerners, the Cajuns fought in, and were greatly affected by, the American Civil War (1861-1865). Some served the South proudly, such as Confederate Brigadier General Alfred Mouton, a "genteel Acadian" from Vermilionville (Lafayette). Others, however, saw themselves as a people distinct from "les amiricains", and regarded the war as someone else's fight, calling it "la querre des Confidiris", ("the Confederate's war") a term that persisted well into the
