ST. BERNARD PARISH
GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY

On August 30, 2005 Hurricane Katrina destroyed 100% of St. Bernard Parish. For many, the spirit to rebuild remains. The St. Bernard Genealogy Society
is currently re-establishing.

Nunez Community College Library, located at 3710 Paris Rd., Chalmette, LA., will house the full set of St. Bernard Genealogical Library of books and quarterly publications L'Heritage on its second floor.

Copies of L'Heritage are available at New Orleans Public Library on Loyola Ave. in New Orleans, Jefferson Parish Library in Metairie, Louisiana State Archives in Baton Rouge, the Westbank Jefferson Parish Library in Gretna and several other repositories around the
United States.

Note:
St. Bernard Genealogical Society is still an integral part of CCUG-PC's history. The SBGS's complete bound set of its Genealogy books is available at Nunez Community College Library. Here is the link! **L'Heritage** and you can search here at Nunez! The SBGS's complete bound set of its Genealogy books is also available at the Terrebonne Parish Library.
