Mount Pleasant Public
Library has more than
enough to offer in enter-
tainment and an excit-
ing virtual tour of Titus
County History.
The museum opened
in January 2013. The
museum features dis-
plays and artifacts that
illustrate the rich histo-
guage. As an ancestral
homeland, this area is
an important part of the
Caddo’s rich heritage.
Archeologists uti-
lize records, artifacts
and landscape features
to learn more about the
tribe’s history. Pottery
styles, mound construc-
tion, cemetery types and
farming methods reveal
much about the Caddo
and provide insight on
settlement patterns, the
family unit, inter-region-
al trade and other ele-
ments of tribal life.
Research at communi-
ty sites in the area drained
by Cypress Creek reveal
elements of Caddo occu-
pation dating from as ear-
ly as A.D. 800 to 1680, an
era that included cultural
contact with Europeans
and Southeastern Indian
groups.

pivotal moments in Titus
County’s past.
According to the
Mount Pleasant Public
Library website, Traylor
Russell first began col-
lecting local history ma-
terials in 1969, when the
library moved into the
old post office building at
213 N. Madison, across
from the Mount Pleasant
City Hall.
Visitors can go back in
time as they step inside a
Caddo Indian grass hut
and hear a Native Amer-
ican tell vignettes of life
in a Caddo Village. The
museum offers a host of
Native American arti-
facts. Most of the items
were found here in Titus
County.
According to the Stop-
pingPoints.com website,
various groups of Native
Americans, known today
as the Caddo, once occu-
pied a region that includ-
ed parts of present-day
Louisiana, Arkansas,
Oklahoma and Texas as
early as A.D. 800.
By the 16th century,
the Caddo developed
complex, hierarchical so-
cieties with civic and cer-
emonial centers, as well
as advanced agricultural
practices. Early Spanish
and French accounts pro-
vided historic records of
the Caddo and their cus-
toms.
Despite successful
trade with the Europeans,
especially the French, the
Caddo eventually faced
a rapidly declining pop-
ulation due to exposure
to Old World diseases,
as well as the arrival of
other Native American
groups from the eastern
United States.
Anglo-American set-
tlement in Texas further
threatened and limited
the Caddo homeland, and
by the late 1850s they
were forced to relocate
to Indian Territory (pres-
ent-day Oklahoma).
Today, the Caddo na-
tion headquarters is in
Binger, Okla., where
members of the tribe
maintain cultural tradi-
tions through pottery,
song, dance and lan-
along the creeks and
the Sulphur River often
halted travel in the ear-
ly years. Record time to
haul cotton to Jefferson
was five days by ox wag-
on.
In 1861, Titus County
voted in favor of seces-
sion. During the Civil
War the county furnished
approximately 3,000
fighting men to the Con-
federate Army. Some of
them fought and died on
battlefields whose names
still haunt the American
past: Shiloh, Gettysburg,
Chicamauga.
At home, tables drew
heavily on game foods
during the war years
(deer, wild turkey, pi-
geon, bear). The county
furnished the Confed-
erate commissary with
beef, butter, corn, rice,
cotton, oats, sweet pota-
toes, flour, cornmeal,
