Minutes and Proceedings, 1836-1852

 Sub-Series

Scope and Contents

Official Proceedings of the Second Municipality Council. The first six volumes (1836-1852) were filmed in an earlier microfilming project by the Louisiana State Archives and Records Service, along with the volume of minutes and proceedings of "secret sessions" (or non-public meetings) of the council, 1836-1847, and a volume of "yeas and nays" of the council for 1851. The latter record was filmed as volume 7 of the regular minutes and proceedings series. The project, however, did not include the last volume of the regular minutes and proceedings series, covering the period February 10 through March 29, 1852. That volume is filmed separately, along with two index volumes for the minutes and proceedings series, one covering 1836-1839 and the other 1839-1844.
