New Orleans (La.) Dept. of Law
Correspondence and subject files, 1880-1946
For the most part, this record series was reconstituted from documents removed from
the
Louisiana Division's Official Vertical File, where they had been arranged partially under
the City Attorney's heading and partly, in error, under other departmental and/or
subject
headings. The City Archives also holds other record series from the city's Law Dept.,
including correspondence and opinion files, ca. 1875-1946; see the archivist for further
information on these records. See also the City Attorney's section in the Guide to the
pre-1862 records in the City Archives.
