III. History of Tensas Parish Early Settlers Tensas Parish dates back to early times of 1000 A.D. when Flowery Mound was built by Native Americans. The Tensas first encountered Europeans with Hernando DeSoto’s expedition in However, LaSalle, the founder of Louisiana, first mentions the Tensas. Along with LaSalle’s group was a man named De Montigny, who settled among the Tensas as a missionary. The Tensas natives eventually left their area on the Mississippi due to fear of an attack from the Yazoo and Chickasaw Indians in 1706.

There was little settlement due to the fact that across the Mississippi River were the Natchez Indians, who were hostile with the French. After the United States purchased Louisiana, American settlers moved in to the area along the Tensas River. They included Ezra and Thomas Marble, John Perkins, David Huffman, Abraham Insco, Robert Coderman, John Barney, Mosses and G.W. Graves, Ehileab Smith, Gibson C. Bettis, Sr. and James Douglas. In 1861, Tensas Parish was created from parts of Concordia and Madison parishes.

Name of the Parish The parish is named for the ancient Native American tribe the Tensas Indians. The tribe dates back to 1000 A.D. where a trading center existed. This is now called Flowery Mound. The Tensas later leave the area for Mobile due to war with the Yazoo and Chickasaw Indians. Later they moved to the Red River area to avoid the English in Florida. The tribe has since disappeared believed to have blended with the Chitimacha Indians.

Major Historical Events Civil War: In April 1862, Governor Thomas Overton Moore of Louisiana realized New Orleans was going to fall to the Union. He ordered the destruction of all cotton in areas along the river. Tensas Parish burned thousands of bales of cotton for days. Tensas Parish was the second leading producer of cotton in the state of Louisiana. By 1862, General Ulysses S. Grant set up his winter headquarters in Tensas Parish while planning his attack on Vicksburg.
