Welcome to Tallulah, Louisiana! Tallulah was founded in 1857 in the Mississippi Valley and is the seat of Madison Parish. The town got it's name in an unusual way. During the construction of the railroad in the area, a widowed plantation owner persuaded the railroad contractor to change the route to run through her plantation. After construction was complete, the widow had nothing more to do with the contractor. In retaliation for being jilted, the contractor named the water stop after an old girlfriend instead of the plantation. The town is is the original home of Delta Airlines, originally named Delta Dusters. The company originated as a cop dusting operation and added passenger operations in 1929. Tallulah has been called home by a number of different notables including civil rights activists, musicians, and professional sports figures. The list also includes the first African-American woman to become a millionaire, Madame C.J. Walker. We hope you enjoy our visit to Tallulah!
