Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bienville Parish, founded in 1848, is located in central north Louisiana. While perhaps most well-known for its ties to outlaws Bonnie and Clyde, Bienville Parish has a rich timber and railroad history that has shaped the community for over a century. Settlers moved into the region to take advantage of its flourishing industry, but it was community that led people to put down roots in the area. Religion and education formed the basis of everyday life in the rural region. In this photographic history, Bienville Parish is depicted through the lives of the people who inhabited the area. Although its size has decreased in recent years, the people who still reside in the parish have made it a priority to preserve the memories for future generations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the accounts of 18th-century travelers to the interpretations of 21st-century historians, Jumonville lists more than 6,800 books, chapters, articles, theses, dissertations, and government documents that describe the rich history of America's 18th state. Here are references to sources on the Louisiana Purchase, the Battle of New Orleans, Carnival, and Cajuns. Less-explored topics such as the rebellion of 1768, the changing roles of women, and civic development are also covered. It is a sweeping guide to the publications that best illuminate the land, the people, and the multifaceted history of the Pelican State. Arranged according to discipline and time period, chapters cover such topics as the environment, the Civil War and Reconstruction, social and cultural history, the people of Louisiana, local, parish, and sectional histories, and New Orleans. It also lists major historical sites and repositories of primary materials. As the only comprehensive bibliography of the secondary sources about the state, ^ILouisiana History^R is an invaluable resource for scholars and researchers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bienville Parish, Louisiana: Its Geographical Position, Topographical Features, Population, Educational Advantages, Commerce, and Transportation; Its Soil and Productions, Game and Fishes, Ores and Minerals; And a Compilation of the Homestead and Exemption Laws of Louisiana, and The Bienville is bounded by the Parishes of Webster, Claiborne and Lincoln on the North, Lincoln and Jackson on the East, Winn, Natchitoches and Red River on the South, and Webster, with Lake Bisteneau, on the West, and embraces a territory of 856 square miles, to which area it was reduced by the formation, in part from Bienville, of the contiguous Parishes of Red River and Webster in 1871, and Lincoln in 1873. Though classed as one of the "Good Upland" Parishes, the surface of Bienville is varied. A topographical view will exhibit high hills, elevated plateaus, gentle undulations and dismal swamps. Running through the Parish, from north to south, are the large bayous Black Lake and Saline, the low lands adjacent to which are subject to annual submersion. Tributary to these are numerous smaller streams, of which many are likewise subject to overflow during the seasons of copious rains. The area of swamp and overflowed land, however, constitutes but a small part of the surface of Bienville, and such are its topographical features as to warrant the conclusion that in the future these lands may prove to be an advantageous source from which may be obtained the finest and most durable timber for domestic use, and to supply, at remunerative prices, the increasing demands of the markets abroad.

Download or read book Edge of the Sword written by Ted Tunnell and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2004-10-01 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ted Tunnell's superbly researched biography of Marshall H. Twitchell is a major addition to Reconstruction literature. New England native, Union soldier, Freedmen's Bureau agent, and Louisiana planter, Twitchell became the radical political boss of Red River Parish in the 1870s. He forged an economic alliance with entrepreneurial Jewish merchants and rose to power during the first upswing of the southern economy after the war. The Panic of 1873, however, undermined his regime and virtually overnight the New Englander quickly went from financial benefactor to scapegoat for northwest Louisiana's failed dreams of prosperity. His life-and-death struggle with the notorious White League has more gut-wrenching suspense than most novels. The first full-length study of Twitchell, Edge of the Sword is edifying, entertaining, and cutting-edge scholarship.

Download or read book Family Maps of Bienville Parish, Louisiana, Deluxe Edition written by Gregory A. Boyd and published by . This book was released on 2010-05-20 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 330 pages with 89 total maps Locating original landowners in maps has never been an easy task-until now. This volume in the Family Maps series contains newly created maps of original landowners (patent maps) in what is now Bienville Parish, Louisiana, gleaned from the indexes of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. But it offers much more than that. For each township in the county, there are two additional maps accompanying the patent map: a road map and a map showing waterways, railroads, and both modern and many historical city-centers and cemeteries. Included are indexes to help you locate what you are looking for, whether you know a person's name, a last name, a place-name, or a cemetery. The combination of maps and indexes are designed to aid researchers of American history or genealogy to explore frontier neighborhoods, examine family migrations, locate hard-to-find cemeteries and towns, as well as locate land based on legal descriptions found in old documents or deeds. The patent-maps are essentially plat maps but instead of depicting owners for a particular year, these maps show original landowners, no matter when the transfer from the federal government was completed. Dates of patents typically begin near the time of statehood and run into the early 1900s. What's Mapped in this book (that you'll not likely find elsewhere) . . . 4960 Parcels of Land (with original landowner names and patent-dates labeled in the relevant map) 32 Cemeteries plus . . . Roads, and existing Rivers, Creeks, Streams, Railroads, and Small-towns (including some historical), etc. What YEARS are these maps for? Here are the counts for parcels of land mapped, by the decade in which the corresponding land patents were issued: DecadeParcel-count 1820s3 1830s444 1840s207 1850s1855 1860s963 1870s52 1880s159 1890s545 1900s581 1910s133 1920s18 What Cities and Towns are in Bienville Parish, Louisiana (and in this book)?
