- ^ Mann's term began on July 18, 1868. He died on August 26, 1868 after just 5 weeks in office. Despite a special election to replace Mann, the House decided to keep the seat officially vacant until the 41st congress. See John Willis Menard.
- ^ Effingham Lawrence, a white Democrat, having been permitted permanently to sever black Republican Jacob Hale Sypher from the office, served just one day, March 3, 1873, the last business day of the 43rd congress. In the meantime, since Effingham's contested election against incumbent Sypher in 1872, Louisiana's 1st congressional district had elected, as Effingham's replacement, a white Democrat, Randall Lee Gibson, a former Confederate Civil War general and later eponym of Tulane University of Louisiana's Gibson Hall.
