I removed a link that doesn't work. I'm repeating it on this page, for anyone that wants to search for this. The link was Isleños of St. Bernard Parish. Lou I 14:23, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)
My wife's family are from the Isleños community. They have a distinct distrust of city/state officials stemming from the flooding of the parish in the Great flood of 1927. According to family oral history, they promised to re-imburse residents before the intentional breech, but backed away from fulfilling the pledge after the flood - apparently only the well connected were ever compensated. During Hurricane Katrina (August 2005) we got calls from relatives still living in St. Bernard Parish warning us that, "the dynamite is on the levee!"
I've added the new "official guess" from today's Advocate, having done the same for the Baton Rouge page, which I keep a much closer eye on. --Michael K. Smith 19:26, 28 February 2006 (UTC)Reply
We seem sorely lacking in info and articles on eastern St. Bernard, such as the communities of Reggio, Yscloskey, Shell Beach, Hopedale, and Delacroix, none of which currently have articles. Also, some maps refer to "Alluvial City", which I've never been sure if that were another name for Yscloskey, or a blanket term for the whole Yscloskey/Shell Beach/Hopedale etc area, or what-- info? Also, the former vilage of Proctorville (of which the ruins of Fort Proctor remains)-- should that be a separate article, or part of Shell Beach article? Thoughts, info? -- Infrogmation 18:49, 13 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
I question the accuracy of the statement involving dynomiting the levies. This is mostly rumor from what I understand. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mkow88 (talk • contribs) 04:08, 19 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
