It is unfortunate that there are so many misconceptions concerning the history of the city of New Orleans.  While
it is true that it has been a city of criminals and rogues, it also has a charm and magic that makes all those who encounter it 
stay or return.  Her history overcomes time, ethnic diversity and difficulties only to reveal a rich and interesting life.  The purpose of this website is to provide reliable information to any one looking for information on New Orleans' colonial history, ancestry, ancestors and families. I will also offer information on the Louisiana region prior to the Louisiana Purchase. Whether you are an amatuer genealogist, a curious native or a student of history, I can probably offer you some assistance.  As often as possible I will ensure that the information is well documented. Your comments and suggestions are always welcome and would be much appreciated.
