Often, individuals who were missed on the regular U.S. census will appear on the agricultural census.

This volume covers the parishes of: Morehouse, Natchitoches, Orleans, Ouachita, Plaquemines, Point Coupe', Rapides, Sabine, Saint Bernard, St. Charles, St. Helena, St. James, St. Jean the Baptist, St. Landry, St. Martin, St. Mary, St. Tammany, Tensas, Terrebonne, Union, Vermilion, Washington, and Winn.

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.
