Livingston
Parish
Livingston
Parish was created in 1832 on
February 10th when the state
Legislature divided St. Helena
Parish in to two parts. It is
named for Robert Livingston, who
helped negotiate the Louisiana
Purchase from France in 1803.
Livingston Parish is also known as
one of the Florida Parishes
because up until 1810 it was still
part of West Florida. In
1941 the town of Livingston became
the parish seat when the
courthouse was moved from
Centerville (Springville) to
Livingston.

Welcome
to this Louisiana Genealogy Trails
Website.
My name is Janice,
and I am your host for Louisiana.
If you would like to submit data
for this site, please email
me with your submissions.
Happy Trails to you on your quest
for your ancestors.
This
is a new site, fashioned after our
successful Illinois
Trails websites,
and we hope to soon add data here
that can help Louisiana
researchers as much as we've been
able to help our Illinois
researchers.
We need some help to do that
though - volunteers to host these
county websites. If you can make a
basic webpage, and you have a
desire to transcribe data for the
free use of all researchers, we
can use your talents!
Review our Volunteer
Information
and email
Kim.
In the meantime,
join
our mailing list
to be kept apprised of updates to
this website.
