I can't say for sure there was no military camp in Winn Parish, but I did ask my mother (age 84) and my aunt who lived there and they don't recall one. However, they both have vivid memories of almost daily manuevers in the woods of Winn Parish and LONG daily convoys from Alexandria, 48 miles south of Winnfield bringin

In the Central Louisiana area you had 3 camps Beauregard now used by the La
National Guard and other Federal Agencies, Camp Livingston near Ball, La and
Camp Claiborne near Forest Hill. Only thing left from the Camp days of
Livingston and Claiborne are some roads and concrete slabs where Buildings where.
You still see Buildings around CENLA that were moved from the Camps. The
Fishville area, which was a popular summer area for families to escape the city
during the summer, and the Pollock are

The state of Louisiana will soon have a new search engine. In order for
the searches to be more precise, a lot of work is being done in all of the
parishes of Louisiana.
I'm working on Winn Parish tonight, which means that a lot of folders and
files are being moved, web pages have had file names changed, etc.
So if you have any problems with a file, please send me the url of the file
so I can fix it.
Thank You,

Hopefully I'll finish correcting the HTML pages this week due to all of the
changes from USGenWeb. My apologies for any inconvenices all of this has
caused.
A new file has been placed in the Winn Parish Archives:
from Deborah J. Leonard we received a list of 1952 Calvin High School
graduates.
There is also a new look to the obit pages. The obits are now being filed
by years. The below 200+ obits are now in the archives. Thank you to
Gregg Davies for these submissions.

The new search engine is Boolean so you can search by any number of
options. The credit (or at least part) goes to W. David Samuelson who was
kind enough to rewrite the code for both Louisiana and the individual
parishes.
It is also meant a lot work for all parish file managers. And we aren't
through yet! The folders where all of the text files are kept had to be
placed in compliance with USGenWeb guidelines.
Through the years, everyone became over-zealous in placing extra folders on

Seeking info about Fannie Emma Ewing. She married Asa Watson Irby in Winn
Parish. On the 1900 Caddo Parish census, she and Asa had two sons, Abner and
Huey. By 1910, Asa was in West Texas. On that census he was listed as a
widower. His sons were not with him. I am presuming that the boys were living with
her relatives. I would like to know when she died, where she is buried and
what happened to the boys. Thanks, Barbara
