Boundaries of Louisiana Territory in 1803 Treaty Claims
A detailed examination argues that United States rights to the eastern Louisiana territory rest on the 1803 treaty with France and earlier Spain transfers. It traces borders from 1762 through 1803, noting the Sabine and Perdido rivers, and disputes over Florida and the Mississippi. The analysis cites the 1783 and 1795 treaties and references Cevalle’s 1804 letter to Pinkney.

Rumors place Bernadotte marching troops into Sweden, with Napoleon shoring up Sweden’s crown prospects. A Danish claim condemning American ships as English trade is noted as likely pretext.
