A terrific guide book
23. Juli 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
Many a genealogist's loved ones have balked at the suggestion that a family vacation could profitably be spent visiting courthouses and cemeteries. The Baldwins, inveterate museum-eers, personally visited most of the more than 170 Louisiana museums, large and small, from the Cabildo and Presbytere in New Orleans (where you can see the Emperor Napoleon?s death mask) to the Huddie "Leadbelly" Ledbetter exhibit at Mooringsport, his home town. They also accompany most of the listings (which are alphabetical by city) with historical sketches and and other local information. The Germantown Colony and Museum in Minden honors the Harmonist/Utopian settlers of 1835 and the book's entry includes a brief history of the colony and its principals, while the description of the Gary J. Hebert Memorial Lockhouse in Plaquemine includes considerable information about the lock system and the interactive exhibits presented there. Also included is complete information on exact locations, hours of operation, costs of admission, and often the name of the curator or director. This is a first-rate guide which will find a place in the glove compartment of many weekend genealogists.
