St. Joan of Arc was established as an independent parish by New Orleans Archbishop Joseph Rummel in 1947. As the local community expanded, the church underwent two enlargements to accommodate its growing congregation. By 1979, the parish had grown large enough for Ascension of Our Lord Parish to be created from its boundaries. On January 31, 1980, a new St. Joan of Arc Church was dedicated by Archbishop Philip Hannan and Msgr. Dennis “Peter” Bergeron, who served as pastor from 1963 until his death in 1989. The original church building now serves as the parish preschool. LaPlace, Louisiana, was originally settled as a farming village in the 18th century during the state's French colonial era, and it was named after an early settler, Basile Laplace. The town's railroad station was established in 1883, fostering growth in the area. LaPlace is notable for being the birthplace of early jazz musicians Kid Ory and Wellman Braud. Known as the "Andouille Capital of the World," LaPlace hosts an annual Andouille Festival every October, celebrating its famous sausage. TV chef Alton Brown even featured LaPlace’s andouille in his program "Feasting on Asphalt." LaPlace also holds a significant place in history as the site where the 1811 German Coast Uprising, the largest slave revolt in U.S. history, began. An estimated 500 enslaved people participated in the revolt, which ended in three days with many leaders killed. This revolt is considered much larger than the 1836 Black Seminole Revolt, although the latter resulted in the only pre-Civil War emancipation of rebellious African Americans. The town’s name is capitalized as "LaPlace" due to a decision to distance it from Basile Laplace’s questionable background. Additionally, the 1871 Bonnet Carré Crevasse near LaPlace caused severe flooding in New Orleans. Good pre-owned condition with shelf wear. See photos for full details of condition.
