Rich River Island settlement awarded to Boas

Ste Genevieve county records show John R. Boas, 78, awarded title to Rich River Island a 12000 acre island in the Mississippi near Ste Genevieve after a federal court ruling. Boas, who has lived there 38 years, contested Missouri and Illinois claims and bought the land in 1878. The decision places the island technically in Illinois though it lies near the Missouri shore. The case hinged on river boundary statutes and ownership for school fund sales.
