You're dying to know. Why the name Plain Dealing?
From "The First 100 Years (A History Of Plain Dealing, 1890-1990)"...
Plain Dealing was a vast, unsettled wilderness in 1839 when the Gilmers, who were among the first settlers of North Bossier Parish, arrived. George Oglethrope Gilmer and his oldest son, James Blair Gilmer, bought from the United States Government thousands of acres of land on both sides of the Red River where he found beautiful rolling hills and pure springs. He moved his family there and established Plain Dealing Plantation which was named for the family plantation in Virginia.
