Cheneyville is significant in the history of the Restoration Movement associated with Alexander Campbell. In 1843 most of the membership of a Baptist congregation under the leadership of William Prince Ford, who had been influenced by Campbell's writings, became a Church of Christ and as of 2014 continues as the Cheneyville Christian Church, the oldest congregation associated with the Restoration Movement in Louisiana. Ford is also known as the original slavemaster of Solomon Northup, an African-American who had been born free but kidnapped in Washington, DC, and sold to Ford in New Orleans during 1841; Northup is the main character in the feature film ''Twelve Years a Slave'', in which Ford is portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch. In 1857, Campbell visited the congregation and was favorably impressed by its fellowship between the races.
