In the early 1800s members of the Coushatta Indian tribe, led by their chief, Red Shoes, settled in and around the present town of Merryville, where Indian mounds, shards and arrow heads have been found. Being near the Spanish Territory provided greater protection, and this location enabled them to maintain a good livelihood through hunting and fishing.
