Thibodaux (pronounced "TIB-uh-doe"; or "TIB-oh-doe"; ) is a small city in and the parish seat of Lafourche Parish, Louisiana Parish, Louisiana, United States, along the banks of Bayou Lafourche in the northwestern part of the parish. It was incorporated as a town in 1830 under the name Thibodauxville, in honor of local plantation owner Henry Schuyler Thibodaux, who in 1824 served as acting governor of Louisiana. The strike for higher wages of 10,000 workers (1,000 of whom were white) was organized by the Knights of Labor during rolling period.
