East Carroll Parish is located in the northeastern part of Louisiana in the United States. It was established on March 28, 1877, and named after Charles Carroll, who was a signer of the Declaration of Independence and the last surviving Founding Father. The parish is part of the Mississippi Delta region and has its western boundary on the Mississippi River.

The area was initially inhabited by Native American tribes such as the Mississippian Culture, Swift Creek Culture, and Marksville Culture. In the early 1700s, European and French explorers ventured through the region, laying the foundation for future settlements. The French claimed the territory and eventually ceded it to Spain as a part of the Treaty of Paris in 1763. After the secret Treaty of San Ildefonso in 1800, the land was returned to France. In 1803, the United States acquired the region as part of the Louisiana Purchase.

During the 19th century, East Carroll Parish became an agricultural hub, with cotton being a major cash crop. This led to a boom in the plantation economy which, unfortunately, resulted in the forced labor of enslaved African Americans. The end of the Civil War in 1865 and the Reconstruction era saw significant changes in the social, political, and economic landscape of the parish.

One fun fact about East Carroll Parish is that it is home to Poverty Point, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Poverty Point includes large prehistoric earthworks built by Native Americans around 17001200 BCE, which predates most of the famous ancient sites, including the Great Pyramids of Egypt. It is considered one of the most significant archaeological sites in North America and offers a unique insight into the lives and culture of the native people who once inhabited the area.
