The Board of Directors of Southwest Louisiana Genealogy Researchers (SWLGR) is a dedicated group of historians, educators, community leaders, and cultural advocates committed to preserving the rich heritage of Creole families and communities across Southwest Louisiana.

Together, the board provides strategic direction, organizational oversight, and cultural stewardship to ensure that our projects—ranging from historical preservation and genealogy research to educational events and media initiatives—remain rooted in authenticity, accuracy, and community engagement.

Each board member brings a unique perspective and passion for honoring ancestral legacies, connecting families through shared histories, and empowering future generations with knowledge of their heritage.
