No. 200 - Simon Gotereau claims a tract of land, situate on the west side of the river Mississippi, in hte county of Acadia, containing one arpent twenty-four toises and two feet in front, and eighty arpents in depth, and bounded on the upper side bu land of Raphael Gotereau, and on the lower by land of Joseph Gotereau.
The first depth of htis land is part of a tract of five arpents and eighteen toises in front , on the ordinary depth, surveyed in the year 1771 for the claimant, who obtained a complete grant for the same in 1774, from Governor Unzaga. The Board confirm the title to the extent of the first depth and reject the claim to the second depth.
No. 200 - Simon Gotereau claims a second concession, lying immediately back of a front or first concession, which we have already confirmed to him in page 276, No. 200, among the confirmed claims.
This claim to a second depth is founded solely upon a petition (requete) to the Governor of the province, in the year 1798, with the commandant's certificate that the land was vacant, and might be granted without prejudice, etc. It does not appear that the petition was ever acted upon by hte Governor, ot that it was presented to him. We are of the opinion that this claim to a second consession ought not to be confirmed under any law, usage, or custom of the Spanish Government, and do therefore reject it.
