History
The publication's roots can be traced back to 1859 when Ernest Le Gendre, a French political exile, began publishing a bilingual newspaper, the Natchitoches Union. Upon Le Gendre's death in 1862, Louis Dupleix took over and renamed it the Natchitoches Times in 1864. The newspaper was later sold to Charles J. C. Puckette in 1868 and continued as the Weekly Natchitoches Times.[3]
