John B. Imbau is, according to legend, the first settler at Little Rock. Imbau is said to have constructed a cabin near "The Rock" in 1763. Quapaw Indian history records that in 1797 a Francis Imbeau was granted and in the area for his help in defeating the Osage Indians to the northwest. Imbeau may have never set foot on this grant.
