The first official parish historian

Richland Parish named its first official parish historian when Evelyn Cochran,left, was appointed to the post by the police jury during ceremonies in April 1981. Library Board President Mrs. W.D. Cotton, left, presented Cochran with a framed copy of a resolution recommending her appointment. The resolution was then adopted by the police jury. The photograph is from the collection of Michael Anderson of Rayville. *** If you have a photograph you’d like to share, bring it by the Beacon-News, e-mail it to Richland BeaconNews@gmail. com or give us a call at 728-2250.
