That blue is hideous! But the fact that there are still shackles in the house from the slaves is incredible. There's so much history. It should be restored as a museum and the slaves who lived and died there should be remembered and deeply honored. I'm sure there must be records in the county of the enslaved with their names, ages and occupations. These old plantations are important to American history, but only because of what my people went through on these properties. They must never be forgotten.

There is a Wikipedia on this home. it states that the home is owned by the Mauldin family since the 1940s when they purchased the 1,000-acre (400 ha) farm property that the house sits on. It also says that they have never resided there because of its remote nature. This family needs to step up and do something.

The basement room with the fireplace was almost certainly the kitchen. This was common practice in old southern homes due to the heat. There were also outside summer kitchens for canning season. Most probably the laundry, sewing and ironing was in the basement too.

The inhuman atrocities committed by Democrats and Muslims were insane. However, blacks were not the first to be enslaved. More white people have been enslaved than blacks. The European Transatlantic slave trade- 1526 - 1867. lasting less than 350 years. Arabic slave trade from Africa Began in the early 7th century. lasting more than 13 centuries. Arab slave trade lasted until the 1960s. Mauritania finally outlawed Slavery in 2007. The Arabic word for black people is Abeeb, It means "servant" or "slave". The word "slave" comes from the Latin word sclava, which means "Slavonic captive"(white people) The word slave first appeared in English around 1290, spelled sclave. The spelling is based on Old French esclave from Medieval Latin sclavus, "Slav, slave," first recorded around 800. Sclavus comes from Byzantine Greek sklabos (pronounced sklävōs) "Slav," which appeared around 580.

More Democrats voted against the '64 Civil Rights Act than Republicans did, in fact, Democrats voted against every single bill for equality and rights for women and blacks before '64 too.

Most place the figure between 8 and 10 million. Muslims castrated most black African slaves during the Arab slave trade to Muslim nations. Why did they do this? To prevent reproduction and the creation of a new generation of slaves. Castrated male slaves could not reproduce, ensuring a constant demand for more slaves from Africa. To prevent black males from having intercourse with Arab women. Castration was a way to dehumanize and subjugate African slaves, stripping them of their masculinity and ability to reproduce. It was an act of domination and control. About 388,000 Africans were shipped directly to North America (the present-day United States and Canada). They were not castrated...

FYI, "Plantation Style" is not a thing. Plantation houses came in many styles, from Greek Revival (most popular) to Italianate to Steamboat Gothic. The first house shown is in the Jeffersonian Palladio style. The exterior is in an advanced state of decay, and all those loose joints are letting water in. It's going to take some deep pockets to save it.

It looks like you definitely had fun exploring the old places and all those clothes were fantastic. It does leave such a mystery as to why all those really expensive clothes were put in the top of that last house.

@@rhondabuce8348 That's okay I'm doing good..so where are you from?

Seeing the grime on the doors and handles of things from the oils of people's hands collecting dirt and dust over time. Crazy.

On the first house, the basement with the two fireplaces was most likely used as a kitchen during the winter months. Usually a second building was near the main house would be a summer kitchen. Which there might had been with the governor house.

I like the video but I wish you would show more about the plantation itself including the slave quarters.

What a beautiful house sitting on a gorgeous piece of land. Hoping it gets fully restored soon.

Wow beautiful,😍 can't wait 🙂

So sad…so much life and stories in this old house at one time! If only the walls could talk.

Didn't appear to be any signs of rennovation what it did look like was squatters that had taken up residence in an old abandoned derelict house- the grime on the walls in the kitchen looked like it came from filthy hands a VERY long time ago

Hello Barbara how's the weather over there

I am 50 seconds in. And I have to say that I am very much enjoying the shots. Whenever I watch one of these I like to watch it with some graph paper at my side. And I like to try to sketch out what the house looks like inside and out. Right now I could draw the outside with near perfection. Now we'll see what I feel like about the shots when you walk through the house. Cuz too many people just do not give a step-by-step, cohesive view of the inside rooms. That leaves me to guess where exactly the hearth room is. I look forward to leaving a review on that!

Sadly, a lot of people will get sucked into the dream of a big diy antique home and don't think about how much money and work it's going to take and get overwhelmed and lose everything.

Hello Michael how are you doing today

I’ve visited The good Hall Saunders Hall when the last residents lived there. The property is overrun with ghost from past owners to slaves to surrounding area ghosts that are there! When I was there, the shackles were still there! In the basement room with the dirt floor. Was the several times and each time was more difficult because of the spirit activity that wanted to interact with me. I find it disturbing to even drive past the property. But, a beautiful, grand plantation home.

I would bet that the second house was used for storage for a theatre group at some point. A lot of the stuff downstairs could have been stage props. Other racks of clothing were different costumes. Looks like a lot of it may have been donated from other theatre groups and patrons. Be surprised what will be given to theatre groups. Both these houses are beautiful. Would love to restore either.

Hi there. I think the lady bugs would actually be Asian lady beetles...you can tell the difference by the color which is an orange or a tan color. I live in Tennessee and they are everywhere. I can't believe someone lived in the first house with kids...it seems a little dangerous, but maybe it was cheap or free...prices the way they are now. Good work in the videos.

Yes, those ladybeetles bite, and they have an odor! The bad thing is, we hardly ever see real ladybugs for years and years since they came . That first house is way too far gone to renovate. It still stands well, as do so mant decades old homes, as they were framed with real lumber. The cost and work in renovation is unbelievable. We did our 1883 farmhouse over many years. It was a very pleasant home that withstood very bad storms, but the work and cost, really are prohibitive.

Can only imagine how it looked when first built

Awesome explores!!! If these places are on the historical registry, why are they allowed to be deteriorating??? Wouldn’t that provide money to restore these properties??? Sad that they are not brought back to their former glory 😞😢😰 The prom dresses are a mystery! Someone who owned a department store, must have, for some reason, stored them there👎😖🧐 It may be an old wives tale, if you didn’t get bad vibes!

These houses were built so well they didn’t require ac they naturally stayed 66 degrees year round only heating

I did a reenactment at the second house, Sweetwater Mansion, back in 2011, and they were trying to rebuild it to look similar to the way it did initially. However, it looks like they have given up completely. It could’ve been a great venue for weddings and several events. I will say this place is VERY haunted I had many strange encounters in there. I saw a little girl dressed in white, heard a baby laugh in the cemetery, and heard my name whispered several times throughout the mansion. It’s definitely a spooky place!

OMG! The ugly floor in the kitchen is the same floor that I used to have in my house when I bought it. My house was built in 1970 and I never liked that flooring but it always stayed in amazing shape. I finally got a new floor last year. The floor is red, green, and gray and it looks like rocks but it also is shaped like a giraffes spots. I've never seen that floor anywhere else. Too funny!
