The community was settled by French colonists in the 18th century, who imported African slaves as workers. It was incorporated as a town in 1830 under the name Thibodauxville, in honor of local plantation owner Henry Schuyler Thibodaux. He provided land for the village and served as acting governor of Louisiana in 1824.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.stoppingpoints.com/louisiana/Lafourche/Thibodaux/ )〕 In 1896, the first rural free delivery of mail in Louisiana began in Thibodaux. It was the second such RFD in the United States. The name was changed to Thibodeaux in 1838, and the current spelling Thibodaux was officially adopted in 1918.
