Title: Houmas House |
|
This is one of the most beautiful examples of a Louisiana Plantation. The first owners of the land were the Houmas Indians. In 1810, Revolutionary War hero Gen. Wade Hampton of Virginia purchased the property and soon began construction on the Mansion that was completed in 1828.
