Baton Rouge was named by d'Iberville in 1699. Was settled in 1721 (which seems to be the OP's premise).

Wasn't part of the US then, and didn't become a city until 1817...
but that's not a criteria for the OP

And to think... I was flipping through the channels and watched a little bit of a Daniel Boone episode today.
