Source: 
Much of the information contained in this cemetery file was researched, 
processed and formatted by Robert Looper (dec.), Brian Oster (dec.), Velton 
Guidry (dec.), Christine Tidwell, and Cynthia Daigle.

In order to assure that the cemetery tables that were being maintained on the La 
Societe des Cajuns Society website will continue to be available to users, they 
have been converted to a format that can be displayed on the GenWeb Archives 
sites for Lafourche and Terrebonne Parish by Christine Tidwell and Cynthia 
Daigle, with additional update information having been added by them and will be 
updated periodically. 

Please refer to the biographical section 
http://www.usgwarchives.net/la/lafourche/biograph.htm 
for a short tribute to three men who had a desire to preserve and make available 
to those who follow, information about the history and life in Terrebonne and 
Lafourche Parishes.
