Organizational History:

 The L’ Anguille Valley Historical Association was in existence in the 1940’s in Logansport, Indiana.  The association sought to promote awareness of local history.  The association worked to create indexes of the tombstones in the cemeteries located in Cass County.  The association members also took pilgrimages to historical sites and decorated the graves of the pioneer patriots of Cass County.
