History
Livingston Parish was originally part of
the Florida Parishes. The parish was created on
February 10, 1832, when the state Legislature split St. Helena
Parish in two. Historians differ as to which one, but the
parish was definitely named after either Robert or Edward
Livingston. In 1869, the parish lost territory when Tangipahoa
Parish was created. It later gained additional land when
Maurepas Island was made part of the parish.
Livingston
Parish consists of 642 square miles on 410,880 acres and is 32 miles
long by 30 miles wide. The geographical landscape of the parish
varies from rolling terrain covered by slash pine and hardwood
forests in the northern part to rich cypress forests and marshes
that border on Lake Maurepas and the Amite River in the southern
end.
Livingston Parish has eight municipalities, with Denham Springs being the
largest. Other municipalities are Albany, French Settlement,
Killian, Livingston (the parish seat), Port Vincent, Springfield and
Walker.

Driving
directions to our main office can be confusing to people who aren't
familiar with the Livingston Parish Courthouse location. If
you think you need directions, please read the information below and
click on the hyperlinks as needed to obtain
maps.
Generally speaking, the Livingston Parish Courthouse lies two
blocks west of Highway 63 (South Frost Road) and several blocks
south of Highway 190 (Florida Boulevard). From I-12, take the
Livingston/Frost exit and drive north (to Livingston) along Highway
63. Click this link for an area
map.
Iowa
Street runs along the north side of the courthouse.
The main parking lot is located at the opposite (south)
end of the courthouse. Most visitors find it easier to
park there and enter the courthouse complex from the south
end.
Even though the official address is listed as on Iowa
Street, the intersection of South Magnolia Avenue and Ohio Street
more accurately pinpoints the parking area for easiest access to
the Clerk of Court office. Click this link for a

Clerk of Court Tom
Sullivan
Tom Sullivan was elected Livingston Parish
Clerk of Court in November, 1999, after a 30-year career in real
estate sales, development and appraisals. He received his real
estate salesman’s license in 1973, his broker’s license in 1980, and
his general appraisal certification in 1990. His real estate
practice was under a family owned brokerage, Tom Sullivan Real
Estate, which opened in 1960. The real estate firm was closed upon
the retirement of his father. His appraisal company, Appraisal
Associates of Louisiana, was closed in 1999 after his election as
Livingston Parish Clerk of Court.
Tom’s election
platform focused on improving customer service through
implementation of modern technologies and the re-structuring of the
office administration. As early evidence of his success, since his
election, Livingston Parish has improved from last place in the
timely reporting of election night returns to being among the top
tier of parishes. Current ongoing projects include compilation of
the first complete ownership map in Livingston Parish and the
initial data transfer that will lead to an internet-based search
program for real estate conveyances.
During his first
term Tom completed the professional education requirements for
certification, and was awarded the designation Certified Clerk of
Court by the Louisiana Clerks of Court Association
(LCCA). In 2002, he was elected to the LCCA board of
directors as representative of District One --- which includes the
nine parishes of Ascension, East Baton Rouge, East Feliciana,
Livingston, St. Helena, St. James, St. John the Baptist, St. Tammany
and Tangipahoa.
Tom is married to Teri Gully
Sullivan. They have three sons - Saun, Justin and John - and
two grandsons - Jack and Quinn.
