Cornay and Barkerville (maybe Baskerville)

I'm trying to figure out where in St. Mary Parish my ancestors lived in the mid nineteenth century. Here's what a document (dated 6 April 1854) among Alfred M. Stanley's estate papers said:

"certain tracts of land and sugar plantation, being the same lately occupied by the deceased, lying in this parish of St. Mary, measuring ten arpens front on the west side of the bayou Teche by the usual depth of forty arpens, bounded above by land of [illegible initials] Cornay and below by land of [illegible first name -- seems to start with the letter I] Barkerville [possibly Baskerville]...."

Do any of you happen to know where these families lived at that time?

Thanks.
