Yesterday's meeting of the NLGHS.

I attended yesterday's meeting of the North Louisiana Genealogical and Historical Society. There are some who say that I go to these meetings just because of the delicious cookies and coffee served.

This is not true. Although I do enjoy the cookies I really go to hear the speaker and to visit with people interested in genealogy. The speaker at the meeting was Julia Scott. She talked about her Great Great Grandmother Julia Washington Bourgeat Muse Dabbs. She had a good display of genealogical data which included a family Bible, family tree and photos.

It was an interesting talk. Julia was really prepared. The Bible is almost 200 years old. The Bible was given to Julia Dabbs in 1835. It had pages of written in family data.
