Shiloh to Canaan is the story of my family and my home, Union Parish, Louisiana. The goal is to collect and share as many photos, stories and facts about Union Parish and the people who lived there as possible.
I have always joked about being related to everyone in the parish. Years later I would discover that it wasn’t a joke. While they are not all relatives you can find a connection to almost everyone you meet. And that is what this blog is about.
