Surnames: Poydras
Hi my name is LaRonda Marie Poydras and my gg grandmother name is Marguerite. I'm trying to trace my history and my parents are dead so I don't have much info. All I know is my grandfather is Landry Poydras son of Marguerite. I don't know his father name. My father is Charles Poydras and they're from Melville,La. and were raised in Baton Rouge and New Orleans. Can you help me?

hi im vanessa poydras and i was wounderiing if you knew about Poydras and Cameron street(both streets intersect). My dad my brother and I think that it has something to do with our family roots because when we went to Poydras st. in louisiana our family lived in a house on that street and they have many interesting pictures there too. the strange thing about that street is that Cameron Poyras is my brothers name and i think that Cameron Poydras might have been the slave owners name. My dad later told me that The slave owner allowed our ancestors to be a part of his family and live in his house which could have been on Poydras st. that's where my great grandmother lives on now.

i know this might be confusing but it is very interesting and i know a good but small amount of information about my family and its traits. if you would like to know more then email me at vanessapoydras@yahoo.com

My dad later told me that The slave owner allowed our ancestors to be a part of his family and live in his house which could have been on Poydras st. which is where my great grandmother lives now. The property could have been passed down from generations.
