Not listed in Alexander
Not sure what the “L R Road” refers to. Clearly not the LIRR since the postage to Louisiana would have been 10c.
B. R. Fox does not appear in the 1850 Federal Census for DeSoto Parish.
Mansfield, Louisiana is located on the northwest edge of Louisiana near the Arkansas border. It was established in 1843 and incorporated in 1847.
