Often, individuals who were missed on the regular U.S. census will appear on the agricultural census. Six of the agricultural census's original forty-eight columns are transcribed here: name of owner, improved acreage, unimproved acreage, cash value of farm, value of farm implements and machinery, and value of livestock. This volume covers the parishes of: Ascension, Assumption, Avoyelles, East Baton Rouge, West Baton Rouge, Bossier, Caddo, Calcasieu, Caldwell, Carroll, Catahoula, Claiborne, Concordia, DeSoto, East Feliciana, West Feliciana, Franklin, Iberville, Jackson, Jefferson, Lafayette, Lafourche, Livingston, and Madison.

But what the genealogists will savor are the biographical sketches that fill this book. Approximately two thirds of this book is devoted to biographical sketches of these early settlers. Until now, if you could even locate a book, it was extremely difficult to use due to its lack of an index.
