Notes
1. GRIFFIN SURVEY ACREAGE: transactions.py says 640 acres (E/170).
Sandell ch.I says 320 acres. The TV Griffin patent was 320 acres.
Needs verification against the deed.
2. JC REED SURVEY: Sandell lists 160 acres purchased by Cantagrel.
Not in transactions.py. reunion.py has commented-out reference
(N/481). Deed exists but is not entered.
3. SANDELL vs TRANSACTIONS.PY TOTALS:
Sandell: 320 + 640 + 640 + 320 + 160 = 2,080 acres
transactions.py: 320 + 640 + 640 + 640 = 2,240 acres
Discrepancy from Griffin (320 vs 640) and missing Reed (160).
4. COCKRELL SALE SURVEYS: The Cockrell-to-colonist sales (G/2, G/313,
F/664, etc.) don't specify which survey they fall in. These are
near-town properties, likely in John Grigsby League or other Dallas
town surveys. Not colony land.
5. IOLA CONSOLIDATION: Two purchases within 16 days in September 1906 —
Remond (Laughlin survey, Sep 10) and Callaway (Coombs survey, Sep 26).
Iola was assembling a large parcel across the old colony footprint.
The Callaway chain (Sharpe → Callaway → Iola) traces through former
colony surveys.
6. MICHEL AS ACCUMULATOR: Three Cockrell purchases (1857, 1859, 1866)
totaling ~7.75 acres, plus 8 town lots in the 1867 register. Most
town property of any colonist. Correlates with his lime kiln
operating "for twenty-five years" (Sandell).
7. GOETSEELS AS LARGEST RURAL HOLDER: 871 acres in 1859 tax rolls.
Cordillot says he invested ~30,000 F (~$6,000) in SCEAT. Separate
from colony land — he bought Mountain Creek from Sauzeau.
8. REVERCHON TO GIRARD: Colony-area McCracken land sold within the
colonist network (1880). $100 for an unspecified parcel. Girard
was a colony family.
9. TRANSACTIONS.PY has a syntax error on line 53: missing comma after
('K', 67). Already noted in CLAUDE.md.
