    2. Does anyone have the land map of Wayne County? I lost mine. I bought it in a Bank in Waynesboro, Mississippi when the Library was sold out. It has pages of where the land is located and who lives there. My last white Woulards died near State Line , Mississippi in 1914 and the others moved out to surrounding towns. Now, all Woulards are black in the Wayne County, Mississippi area. I would love to know where my gr gr grandpapa lived and where the land was he owned and raised his family. I know the town is Eret, Mississippi in Wayne County. Land , where the white Woulards lived,was given to the black back in the mid to late 1800s. The blacks call the area they live in now Woulard's Bend. My white Woulard family lived three to five miles away in Eret.( The white Woulards move to Wayne County in 1815, they lived in Washington for a while then settled in Wayne County) Family names: Benjamin F. Woulard, Sr. Ben F. Woulard, Jr. John W. Woulard, Erasmus Woulard, John D. Woulard.
