1866 - 1883 UNION PARISH LOUISIANA OBITUARIES

These newspaper articles were abstracted by me from Louisiana newspapers available 
on microfilm at the Hill Memorial Library, Louisiana State University campus, 
Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I acknowledge that the research of Ms. Lori Peppers, 
Ouachita Parish Librarian, was helpful in compiling these early obituaries, 
as almost all of these obituaries come from Ouachita Parish newspapers 
(Union Parish has no extant newspapers from this era).

The Monroe Bulletin 
Wednesday, 5 Dec 1883, page 3, column 2 

"The Grand Jury was held this week to investigate the killing of a negro man 
last Saturday on the outer edge of the parish by D.S. McFarland of Union 
parish.  The particulars are conflictingly reported, and until the Grand 
Jury takes action it is probably best not to repeat any of them."
