And the American Forces used French maps or copies there of.
And places once were in German and after World War I they took French names. And some were modified or adapted over the next century of so.
And Americans often buthered the French place names.
Alsace has been traded back and forth between Germany and France 5 times until France retook it in 1919.
It was called "Upper Alsace" aka southern Alsace since rivers flow northward in this region. Today is is know as the Haut-Rhin Department of the Grand Est region of France. It borders Germany.
Alontreaux Chateau or Alontreauz Castle or Fort maybe a non-fortified place no longer. We find no mention of such Chauteau on line.WIKIPEDIA:
Haut-Rhin is the smaller and less populated of the two departments of the former administrative Alsace region, the other being the Bas-Rhin (Lower Rhine). Especially after the 1871 cession of the southern territory known since 1922 as Territoire de Belfort, although it is still densely populated compared to the rest of metropolitan France.

The following provides information that is related.
The 88th Division was a National Army Division that was created late in the war on September 4, 1917, with men coming from Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota. Later a majority of men were from Missouri or Nebraska. Training largely took place at Camp Dodge, Iowa. During the time period between July 25, 1918, and September 4, 1918, the division moved to France. The first few weeks in France the division was trained for open warfare as part of the First Army, 6th American Corps. The 88th Division's first major assignment was to relieve the 29th American Division at the Haute-Alsace Sector, so that they could take part in the Meuse-Argonne offensive. When the 88th Division left the area on September 14, 1918, they were transferred to the 7th American Army Corps. From September 23, 1918, to November 1, 1918, the 88th Division held the Center Sector of Haute-Alsace. At times they held the line by themselves, at other times they had help from French troops. From September 20, 1918, to October 12, 1918, the division suffered from an epidemic of influenza and pneumonia, resulting in 444 deaths.

September 23, 1918, to November 1, 1918 On September 23„ 1918, advanced elements of the 88th Division moved into the Center Sector of Haute-Alsace, which was being temporarily held by the 38th French Division that had relieved the 29th American Division. These advanced elements, totaling eight officers and four hundred men, were augmented until on October 7, 1918,
Division headquarters of the 88th Division was moved to Alontreaux Chateau, Haute-Alsace; and on October 15, 1918, the command of the Center Sector of Haute-Alsace passed from the 38th French Division to the 88th American Division, which formed part of the 40th French Army Corps of the VII French Army, while remaining under the VII American Army Corp; for administrative purposes.
To reach the sector, the infantry and engineers of the Division had been forced to make long marches—sometimes 25 kilometers a day—on congested roads, pulling with them their heavily loaded machine gun carts, combat and field wagons, in cases the average weight pulled per man being 250 pounds.
Furthermore, the Division had been forced to go without essential supplies, because all available transportation was being used to the maximum in the Argonne drive.
On arrival in France, the Division had been required to turn in all its field ranges, overcoats, and all except one blanket per man; and means of cooking had to be improvised, or secured by purchase from the French or by the utilization of small French stoves in billets, supplemented by the extensive use of camp kettles and water cans.
Until October 6, 1918, there were only two ambulances in the Division—and they had to serve the French troops in the area also.
Meantime, on September 20, 1918, a wide-spread epidemic of influenza set in. and in eight days there were 1,370 cases in one regiment alone. This epidemic increased until October 14, 1918, on which date there were eighty deaths. All told there were 6,845 cases of influenza and 1,041 cases of pneumonia reported, from which 444 deaths resulted.MILITARY: - image
