The fighting in Louisiana was really a series of battles for New Orleans, lasting from December 1814 through January 1815. British had 2,037 casualties: 291 dead (including three senior generals), 1,262 wounded and 484 captured or missing. The Americans had 71 casualties: 13 dead, 39 wounded and 19 missing. However as with all battles of this period, it is likely that the casualties were greatly exaggerated.
