LIVING HISTORY
From its beginning, slaves were a part
of Bratton Plantation's success. At its
peak in 1843, Bratton Plantation was
home to 139 enslaved men, women
and children. By the mid-19th century,
the Bratton Plantation was considered
a large slaveholding operation. Each
fall, a presentation called "By the Sweat
of Our Brows" seeks to re-create typical slave life at Brattonsville while telling the story of African-Americans on
the farm following the Civil War.
