The Memories of Terrebonne Oral History Archives was done in 1982 under Project Director Glen Pitre. It contains 140 hours of audio recordings of Terrebonne Parish inhabitants. The interview for each person is in 2-4 parts. Ed Hicks is working on converting them to digital format from the original cassette tapes. They will be posted online as they are converted. Phil Chauvin is transcribing the interviews for TLL.

• Names that are linked will open the text transcription which was published in TLL.
• If you left-click on one of the segments (parts), your built-in media player should start. Because of the large size (often over 30mb) of the files, it will take some time to download the file before it starts playing.
• Depending on the person, the interviews are in English, English & French, or French.
