Crowville was settled in 1825. It was named for T. J. Crow, an early settler and storekeeper. [2] Even as late as the 1830's, Indians were still in Franklin Parish and around the Crowville area. They were probably renegades from the mass movement of Indians to Oklahoma reservations. About 1831, families from various sections of Louisiana, neighboring states, and even northeastern states began to settle here. Naturally, farming was the chief occupation of these early settlers.
