Unknown Dancehall
Status: Closed
Parish: Lafourche
Location: Lockport
From “Louisiana: A Guide to the State”: “The Cajuns of the Lockport vicinity have several curious customsÉTrucks are sent out along the road by the owners of dance halls to transport people to the weekly dances- separate trucks for men and women in order that the occupants may be packed more closely. Before the days of automobiles, groups went to dances on barges and in boats.”
