An interesting story about a plantation near us.
A family near us bought an old farmhouse it dated from the civil war. It’s not that large but a beautiful old home. It had an outbuilding and a grave yard on the property. The couple that bought it was remodeling the house and discovered it was a plantation house and the outbuilding was slave quarters. The new owner had passed the house on the school bus when he was a child and wished the house was his.
The interesting part.
The original owner had enslaved the new owners ancestors and the grave yard was their final resting place and they had no idea. They have finished the restoration of the house and grave yard and have family celebrations in their new home all are invited.
