Thank you so much. I was able to see the graveyard, my old house, my grandmother's home, and other parts of where I grew up. It's destroyed of course, but not washed away! It just helps to see it.[/QUOTE]

I followed the link, but have never been great with unlabeled aerial photos. Give me some clues: which graveyard, the McCall Cemetary? I'm trying to find Lynn McCall's house.

I know your father; I went to high school with him and my sister (who lost her home in NO to Katrina) graduated with him. Let us know what specifics you find out about Grand Chenier. Thanks.

Is this Jeff McCall? My dad Billy flew the area but said it was impossible to reconize anything. He said his place was gone along with by my uncles. If I find out anything else I will let you know. I hope all your family is fine. If this if Jeff, tell Thomas I send my best. DD

I'm sorry; Jeff died in 1984. This is Jamie. Thomas is in Morgan City right now, trying to get hold of a generator.

Nickie, talked to mom, and daddy said the back kitchen is gone, Angie's old house is gone, Uncle JC's house is gone, Your mom found her house in the picture they took with the plane, Immac Conc is gone, St, Eugene is damaged, the schools in Cameron, Creole are damaged, I was looking at some satellite photos of the area, found Aunt Lady's house, but trailer park is gone, (including Kristin's) Immac Conc, Elem School, got to Dyson Road by the McCall's, I may have found a partial picture of Mom and Dad's house but not sure, Couldn's find J.C's house in photos just a lot of water, hard to find the roads and follow, my trailer has 2 trees resting on the outer roof with one limb for sure sticking through in the living room and other trees in the yard. This is very depressing and mind bobbling to see the pictures and clips of TV especially when you are unable to be there to see for youself. You may already know this information but I just found you message on this board. Aunt Tina (living it up in the metropolis of Hessmer)

Kristi_Jo,
Could you ask your dad if they've heard any news from Tommy Thompson. We've been in contact with Carolyn, Selena, Jerry, and Velma Mock they are in Alabama and we think they are coming down in a few days to stay with Mike and I in Cow Island. We've found the ariel shots from http://ngs.woc.noaa.gov/rita/29093G3_RITA.HTM
and located where their homes where but haven't heard anything from Tommy, Any info would be appreciated.

Sue Thompson

Nicki and Angela, have you heard from Chad or any of the other Littles?

Aunt Tina,
Isn't this horrible!! So hard to believe this happened. I found you on another message board but I'm glad you are on this one now. I've been getting most of my info from here.

J.R.,
I haven't heard from them but I will check with mom and grandma today. I did hear that their house wasn't there anymore though.

Nickie

aunt tina,

thanks for the info. i saw grandma lady's place on the satellite photo, looks like some damage.

j.r.,

i haven't heard from the little's. i don't know where they evacuated to. aunt joyce ann flew over yesterday and said aunt eyvonne's old house and margaret's old house were gone. i haven't been able to find those places on the satellite photos. i can't figure anything out after the elementary school. i think i may have found john cogar's old place, but i'm not sure.

J.R. and Angela,

Aunt Bessie, Uncle Red, Kent, Ella Mae, Margaret, Willard, and all the children and grandchildren are safe in Eunice. Bryan, Dainty, and Chynna are in Baton Rouge. Brent, Vickie, and children are in Basile with her family. I hope all is well with you.

Theresa
