Land Granted to Lafayette

In 1903, Lafayette was given ten
different grants Of land along the Mis-
sissippi river. and In 1924 he was
granted one township which con-
prised 1880 acres of land in west
Florida. Tallahassee is now located
on this site. 1t is impossible to give
the locations of the other grants, as
the land was not surveyed at that
time except by special surveys, which
were Indicated by familiar land
