of Section 41, T8S-R6E.  This is the land originally claimed by John

Killian, and later settled by Andrew Jackson patterson who was a schooner

captain.  He brought merchandise goods to the people who settled along

the water-ways of our lower Livingston Parish.  Descendants of this family

own this same property today. (1)---Lucille Cooper
