| (Below) This portion of the Confederate Map of the parish of Lafayette found in the State Archives, is remarkably similar to General Land Office Maps of the townships. The detail is simple but precise. I have campared it below with portions of GLO township maps and an 1861 J. H. Colton Map to compare their likenesses. The General Land Office Maps are the authoritative maps used to determine the historical land records. |

| (Left) Notice that the boundaries are the same in this 1861 J.H.Colton Map of the Souther States. All show the southern boundary in Township 11 South, Range 3 East, not in Township 10 South, Range 3 East further to the north as in Merrill Bernard's Survey. |
