UPDATE: To help clear brush from White-Lattier Cemetery and look for lost
tombstones, call Jeff Girard at (318) 357-5471 or Gary Joiner at (318)

There is a LAGenWeb transcription of this Shreveport area cemetery. Recent photographs can be viewed at La-cemeteries.com . The LA Dept of Archaeology was contacted for further information. The last burial appears to be in 1916. There is at least one headstone that appears to have been broken, but fixed. The cemetery is noted to have quite a bit of leaf clutter. It is not known at this time who is the current landowner.

URL changes
Update: X10hosting is no longer hosting the community. New URL http://louisianacemeteries.100webspace.net Due to spam the wiki has been closed. Feel free to continue to email requests, however, unless an email is sent directly to louisianacemeteries@yahoo.com I will NOT be able to respond.
There have been a few changes, although, not of my own undertaking with the web hosting for Louisiana Cemetery Preservation. The URL is now http://louisianacemeteries.x10host.com/index2/ . Our free webhosting x10hosting.com, needed to change the URL on October 1, 2012. Links need to be updated at the free Angelfire hosted website. Please be patient. It appears that the Facebook community has also experienced a few URL changes. I have submitted a support ticket to Facebook for the issues and hopefully this will be resolved soon. You may always count on the wiki. This website has been very reliable since November 2007. http://louisianacemeteries.wikispaces.com .
