Description
A 1500 acre area along Mill Race Creek and tributaries was surveyed to locate and evaluate protohistoric (ca. A.D. 15401685) and early historic (A. D. 1685-1821) sites relating to a possible French trading post called Le Dout, and to the Woldert site (41WD333), where large numbers of French guns and glass beads have been found since the 1870s. Archival research of French and Spanish documents was also conducted to uncover further information about Le Dout.
