For this last segment of claims from Volume III the following explanatory notes apply. (Copied from Page 172.)


Class No. 1, will comprise claims for lands held under complete patents of un- questionable authenticity, which, having been filed with the Register previous to the dissolution of the Board of Commissioners appointed for the purpose of ascertaining and adjusting titles and claims to lands in the said district, and found of record, have been transferred to the said Board for confirmation, pursuant to the fifth section of an act of Congress entitled "An act for ascertaining and adjusting titles and claims to lands, etc." passed the 2d March 1805. See note A, at the end of the report. (Compiler's note: said note A is not attached herewith, nor are the other notes mentioned below.)


Class No. 2, will comprise claims founded on authentic orders of survey conceded by the Spanish Government of Louisiana, which, with or without proof of occupancy ought, in the opinion of the said Register and Receiver, to be confirmed. See note B, at the end of the report.


Class No. 3, will comprise claims founded on requetes, approved and sanctioned by the competent Spanish authority, or for lands which may have been surveyed by an authorized Spanish surveyor previous to the change of Government; and which, whether accompanied or not by proof of occupancy, ought, in the opinion of the said Register and Receiver, to be confirmed. See note C, at the end of the report.


Class No. 4, will comprise claims unsupported by any requete or concession under the former Government of Louisiana; but which, from regular transfers of title, bearing date anterior to the change of Government, before the authority competent to judge, and whose duty it was to decide on the validity of the title of the seller, whether supported or not by evidence of occupancy, ought, in the opinion of the said Register and Receiver, to be confirmed. See note D, at the end of the report.


Class No. 5, will comprise claims for lands which have been occupied or possessed ten consecutive years previous to the 20th day of December, 1803, which, in the opinion of the said Register and Receiver, ought to be confirmed for the quantity of land claimed, or within the acknowledged and ascertained limits thereof, provided the same shall not exceed the quantity of two thousand acres, pursuant to the second section of the act of Congress of the 3rd March, 1807. See note E, at the end of the report.


Class No. 6. will comprise claims for lands on which settlements had been made prior to the 1st day of October, 1800; and inhabited and cultivated for three consecutive years from that date by persons over the age of twenty-one years, or the heads of families, and not claiming or holding, in their own right, any grants or concessions for other lands from the French or Spanish Governments, ought to be, in the opinion of the said Register and Receiver, confirmed, pursuant to the first section of the act of Congress of the 21st April, 1806, for the quantity claimed, or within the acknowledged and ascertained limits of the same, not exceeding one mile square, or six hundred and forty acres. See note F, at the end of the report.


Class No. 7, will comprise claims founded on occupancy subsequent to the 1st of October, 1800, and previous to the 12th day of April, 1814; and claims founded on occupancy, commenced previous to the said 1st day of October, by persons holding, or having held, other lands in their own names in Louisiana under French or Spanish grants or concessions; and which claims do not come


84


within the purview of classes Nos. 5 or 6, ought not, in the opinion of the said Register and Receiver, to be confirmed, the right of pre-emption to the extent of one hundred and sixty acres (a quarter of a section) being secured to the settler by an act of Congress passed the 12th of April, 1814. See note G, at the end of the report.


Class No. 8, will comprise claims which, being accompanied by no document of title of date anterior to the 20th day of December, 1803, nor proof of occupancy and cultivation prior to the 12th of April, 1814, ought not, in the opinion of the Register and Receiver, to be confirmed. See note H, at the end of the report.


Class No. 9, will comprise claims for land occupied as vacheries; and whether with or without evidence of occupancy, ought not, in the opinion of the Register and Receiver, to be confirmed. See note I, at the end of the report.

ST. MARY PARISH 1813 TAX LIST


For some reason the editor of the PLANTERS' BANNER (Franklin) in 1848 decided to publish the St. Mary Parish tax list for 1813. No particular reason was offered. It should not have been that it was the first such list, for St. Mary became a parish in 1811 and there should have been one for 1812, if not for 1811. Possibly it was then the earliest one in' existence.".


Because 1813 is only two years after the cut-off date for this work, and because the St. Mary Parish of 1813 represented a large segment of the old Attakapas District, I decided to include the tax list in this work on the old Attakapas District. The list may be found in the PLANTERS' BANNER issue of April 6, 1848, page 2, columns 4 - 5. The Louisiana State University Library microfilm department has a copy, and they photostated the page for me.
