I'm not EXCUSING it, but it's quite possible that they went with county instead of parish because in every OTHER state, a parish is a church and it's particular congregation and area served.

I don't really get why Louisiana doesn't switch over to counties, but I've never lived there and have only been TO the state by means of riding through it on Greyhound buses from Atlanta to San Diego.
