Two theories have been offered for the origins of its name: one is that it was named after Louisa Massey, who was very well known in the area at the time because she avenged the murder of her brother when she shot the party responsible; the other is that it was named after Louisa County, Virginia.〔Savage, Tom A Dictionary of Iowa Place Names, University of Iowa Press, 2007, p. 11 | ISBN=1587297590〕 The first courthouse was a simple wood-framed building. In 1840, a second courthouse, measuring 40' x 20' (about 12 x 6 m), was constructed of stone. In 1854, a third structure was built. The courthouse used today was erected in 1928.〔(Louisa County, Iowa )〕
