Laura Plantation

Our second Plantation tour was of the Laura Plantation, a Creole Plantation.  The families of the Laura Plantation were French speaking Catholic Creole people.  It is also one of the only plantations that was ran by 3 generations of women because the men all died at a young age before they could inherit the plantation.


Taken from a photo of Laura when she attended a Marty Grais party in New Orleans.
