http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/136927043

The Charles E. de la Vergne Memorial Collection documents the activities of de la Vergne family members in Louisiana from 1719, as well as the world of banking and finance in New Orleans. It contains correspondence and military orders (1814-1815) pertaining to the defense of New Orleans during the War of 1812; correspondence (1835-1839) regarding Jefferson College in Convent, La.; and letters of Jules Lavergne (1841-1842) discussing political figures in Washington, D.C., Congressional legislation, and presidential policies on fiscal matters and tariffs. The Schmidt Family Papers (1830-1872) pertain to family and business matters, largely in Europe. The collection also includes genealogical materials on the de la Vergne, Bermudez, Dreaux, Landry de Freneuse, Schmidt, Seghers, and Villeré families, as well as a microfilmed copy of C.V. Lavoisne's Complete Genealogical, Historical, Chronological, and Geographical Atlas (Philadelphia: M. Carey and Son, 1820).
