While the fate of New Orleans’ records (2theadvocate.com) as well as records in other areas of Louisiana and Mississippi are still up in the air, there are genealogists that are looking at helping in a unique way – by coming together and assisting those who may have lost their genealogy records.
What started out as a group at groups.google.com/group/Katrina-Genealogists now has a formal forum setup at http://cultrans.com/katrina.
They are offering to share their research, as well as their time and resources, with those who have lost their records and research.
