Description: Chicot County by Blake Wintory, Lakeport Plantation Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Chicot County, situated along the Mississippi River, was created in 1823. In the 16th and 17th centuries, Europeans like Frenchman Ren-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle visited the region. With the French influence, the area came to be known as Chicot for the "snags" and "stumps" that populated the swampy bottomlands of the Mississippi River. Beginning in the 1830s, slave-based agriculture dominated the countys economy. By 1860, it was filled with prosperous cotton producers; many plantations were concentrated near the Mississippi River. The countys three principal towns--Dermott (1890), Lake Village (1898), and Eudora (1904)--incorporated as the county began to modernize. Local merchants flourished in the early decades of the 20th century, and Lake Village, situated on Lake Chicot, attracted many tourists. More recently, the county has suffered population loss and struggled economically, but agriculture still thrives, and the countys proud traditions continue.
