About Marksville, Louisiana
Marksville is a city of 5,065 people and the seat of Avoyelles Parish. It takes its name from Marc Eliche, a Sephardic Jewish trader thought to have come from Venice, who stopped here when his wagon broke down. He stayed and opened a trading post around 1794. Spanish priests wrote his name as Marco Litche, while French priests wrote Marc Eliche.
The Louisiana Purchase of 1803 brought the territory into the United States, and the settlement was showing up on Louisiana maps by 1809. Eliche later gave the land that became Courthouse Square, the heart of town. Marksville grew into the trading center for the cotton plantations that spread across the countryside around it.
“Prior to archaeological investigations in the 1920s, local legend had it that the Marksville site, with its C-shaped enclosure and six earthen mounds, was the work of the Hernando de Soto expedition, which traversed the southeastern United States between 1539 and 1543.”
- Solomon Northup set freeSolomon Northup lived as a free man in Saratoga Springs, New York, until kidnappers sold him into slavery. He spent nearly 12 years on Avoyelles Parish plantations before officials from Marksville and New York helped win his release in 1853. Back home, he wrote a memoir of his ordeal, and it became the basis of the 2013 film 12 Years A Slave.
- Fish from the sky, 1947Between seven and eight in the morning on October 23, 1947, hundreds of fish dropped out of the sky onto Marksville's streets and yards. All were local freshwater kinds, two to nine inches long: largemouth black bass, goggle-eye, hickory shad and several species of minnows.
- Louisiana's first land-based casinoThe Tunica-Biloxi Indian Tribe, whose reservation lies in the parish, opened Paragon Casino Resort in Marksville in June 1994. It was the first casino in Louisiana built on land rather than on the water, and the federally recognized tribe still operates it.
- A culture named for MarksvilleArchaeologists named the Marksville culture after the Marksville site. Its people took up ideas from the Hopewell tradition, such as mound burial and ceremonial centers. Marksville potters were the first to mix temper like sand, shell or moss into their clay so it would fire more thoroughly.
