About the Felix LaBauve
Chapter
Our chapter was
organized September 25, 1975, in Walls, MS and
reincorporated in Olive Branch in 2010. Col.
Felix LaBauve, originally from Vauziers, France, came to
DeSoto County in 1836. He was in the mercantile
business and studied law, but was better known as the
editor of The Phoenix, an early DeSoto County newspaper,
now known as the DeSoto Times Today. He served in
the Mississippi House of Representatives and Senate and
as clerk of DeSoto County. Above is a photo
of his home, which is listed on the National Register of
Historic Places and is now occupied as a private home.
