A Brief Explanation of French Measurement:
An arpent is a unit
of length used by
the French in the
18th – 20th
centuries, 191.944
feet (approximately
58.504 meters).
An edict of Louis XV
dated 12 October
1716 mentions that
land in the Province
of Louisiana will be
granted in modules 2
to 4 arpents wide
along the river by
40 to 60 arpents
deep.
When the province
was in Spanish
hands, the
Capitán-Generál
authorized modules 6
to 8 arpents wide by
40 arpents deep
(regulations issued
18 February 1770).
In practice, the
dimensions of the
grants were often
stated in lieue, and
a number of
different lieue were
in use during this
period. French and
Spanish surveyors in
Louisiana
interpreted the
lieue as 2500 toise
de Paris, = 83 1/3
arpent de Paris
instead of 84.
Following the
Louisiana Purchase,
the U.S. government
sent surveyors to
Louisiana who
measured existing
land grants, and,
calculating
backward, settled on
a value of 191.994
feet exactly for the
arpent.
