Allen Greene of Arcadia and Reconstruction Era Parish Power
Allen Greene and family rise from a Walon County birth to a landholding planter in Arcadia and Vienna, facing Reconstruction turmoil in Jackson Parish. He and son Charles J. Greene navigated carpetbag rule to secure parish offices, while owning plantations, slaves, and businesses. The Greens remained influential after troops withdrew in 1877, with Allen dying July 19, 1880, and his wife Mahati dying March 10, 1880.
