This Mesmerizing Footage Of An Abandoned Missouri Plantation Will Blow Your Mind
In this video, BackyardExploration takes you on a tour of a rural Missouri plantation. It features footage of an 1830s home, cemetery, single room chapel, and various outbuildings. The founder of this property was born in 1796 in England. He moved to America one year after his 1820 marriage. He purchased this land in 1834 and built a house on it. Eventually, he expanded his estate to a 1,500-acre plantation, took up mining and milling, and became one of the most prominent men in the county.
During these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list to visit at a later date.
It moved underneath the photographer when stepped on.
There was a legend of a man who lived there who boiled one of his slaves after he died. A skeleton was later found in the attic and the remains are buried in the cemetery on site.
Supposedly the man had been a doctor and the skeleton used for medical purposes.
