Elysian Fields is a Rural community of about 300 people in Harrison County , Texas ( USA ), located 11 Mile s southeast of the County Seat of Marshall . The community was originally the site of a Caddo village named Biff Springs. An American from New Orleans , Capt.

In 1910 the community relocated one mile to the west, so it could be linked to a Railroad . The community is now the center of the Elysian Fields Independent School District . External links |
