Shiloh's Doom. http://www.rootsweb.com/~launion/history.htm - July 2007
Shiloh had served as the western center of commerce for the parish since the 1840s. Located between Bayous d'Arbonne and Corney about twelve or thirteen miles west of Farmerville, the Shiloh merchants received their goods by steamboats up Bayou d'Arbonne. During the rainy seasons, the water level was high enough for the steamboats to reach Stein's Bluffs, a few miles south of Shiloh. When the decision was made in 1897 to lay the parish's first railroad to the west of Farmerville, Shiloh had high hopes of becoming Union Parish's first railroad town. However, to the local citizens' dismay, the railroad commissioners laid the line two miles west of Shiloh. Then, a second blow struck shortly after midnight on 20 March 1899 when an arsonist caused most of Shiloh's stores and the post office to burn to the ground. The losses totaled over $40,000 and included the spring stock that the merchants had just received by steamboat. The town never recovered from this double whammy. Since the railroad eliminated the need for a water route for transporting cotton to market and bringing the merchant's their goods from Monroe, instead of rebuilding, business moved two miles west to the railroad stop. Reportedly named after the railroad commissioner's daughter, the rail stop of Bernice soon replaced Shiloh as the western business center of the parish.

From James Dewey O'Brien 9/30/2003
Grandmama's birth year on her death cert. is wrong. Says 1861. But the age is right at death (91 which means 1860). So I got the 1860 census on which she was a mere l/12th years old at time of census (born in June as you know).
