Granted I am old but I grew up with Leopard dogs (what is now Catahoulas ) They were just Leopards or Leopard dogs, (they didn't have much white, weren't all merle colored, and were rarely double glass eyed) never heard of Leopard Curs until the treeing  Leopards "or Leopard Curs came to light" more recently they became Leopard hounds.
 Laceys were  Lacey hog dogs.  Blackmouth Curs were Blackmouth Curs or just  Yaller dogs. Nowdays they are all Curs.
Still trailing Cur dogs do not " strike" they "Find" thus they were and are find dogs, (they find a hog or cattle and bark bayed at it) Hounds or open trailing dogs "strike" when they "find and open"  on "track", they all bay when they have something cornered "on the ground", thus they are bayed no matter what they are.
Old time terminology that is more "correct" than the modern terms. Amen
