In 1791 Anthanase De Mezieres granted to Julian and Pierre Bisson land
called Ecore Rouge (Red Hill) located at the present day hamlet of Allen
between Robeline and Powhattan, Louisiana, one hundred ninety square
arpents of land on each side of Topelcot Bayou. The widow Tontin, nee
Possiot, wed Julian Bisson (Note: The store at Allen and the home of
Leroy—Dobber—Anderson are located atop Ecore Rouge).
