Ella B. Hughes wrote that in 1888 a post office was built in Husser, Louisiana and just a few years later a second post office was built a few miles to the south and was called Viola.
[2] The name of the community is derived from an ancient native american ritual dating back to the Archaic period.
The Muscogee people would perform a ritual they called ássi which means black drink and yahola which means "shouting man" or "singer".
