History of Metairie:
“Metairie Ridge was settled by the French in the early1760s before the colony was ceded to Spain by the Treaty of Paris in 1763. The land remained under Spanish control through 1801, when it came back under French control once again. Napoleon sold the territory to the United States two years later with the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. Jefferson Parish was officially established as a governmental unit in 1825 (welcometo.metairie.com).”
