Logansport, Louisiana

The area, long a disputed boundary even after the Louisiana Purchase, was part of a neutral territory negotiated by Gen. James Wilkinson and Lt. Col. Simón de Herrera on November 6, 1806.

The survey crew began the demarcation process on May 20, 1840, at the Gulf of Mexico, and work was completed in 1841.

The Texas Annexation of 1845, ended nine years of the Sabine River international boundary.

With the arrival of the railroad, there was an influx of gamblers and others of questionable character, along with the citizens of better repute.

Oil and gas were also a very important source of income for the early citizens of Logansport.

It has a terraced landscape, veterans memorial, walking paths, gazebo, picnic tables, and a pavilion.
