Louisville,Mississippi Dec.1862

Im following a Battalion of Tennessee Cavalry from Columbia down to Port Hudson in Dec.1862. The boys say they camp at an Indian settlement just below Louisville and have a fine time with the Indian girls Dancing and playing Ball. Am curious,wern't most of the Choctaws out of Mississippi by this time except for perhaps those that took their 160 acres at the Treaty of Dancing Rabbit. Were there any large groups left in 1862 and where might this place be near Louisville.
