Description: Sault-Saint-Louis seigneury, 1829. It is interesting to note that the surveyor (McCarty) identifies the portion of land that is claimed by the people of Kahnawake ("Morceau réclamé par les Sauvages" - portion claimed by the Indians. Also, with the words "Vraie ligne de la seigneurie Sauvage" - true boundary of the Indian Seigneury, the surveyor highlights that the original boundary of the Iroquois seigneury is situated in the Seigneury of LaPrairie.
