At the time of the Louisiana Purchase, a large swatch of the western edge of what is now Louisiana was literally no man’s land. While the Adams-Onis Treaty in 1819 set new boundaries, the era of "No Man’s Land" would end only after the United States physically installed a military presence at “Cantonment Atkinson” in 1829.
