Ralls County, MO

Paranormal Investigation Teams "This spooky old plantation house was found by fotoroadtripr (James) and I while on a 2 day expedition for anything old. This was our most spectacular find. I have started to do some research about it without much luck on this specific building. It is in Ralls County, Missouri where in 1860 the population of enslaved African-Americans was 28% of the total population. The state average was 9.7%. Pike Co. was 4th in hemp production and 8th in tobacco, and 7th in slave ownership. Pike and Ralls Counties were included in "Little Dixie" the slave belt in Missouri. There is a stone building in back and that may have been slave quarters." - photo / description by Rodney Harvey
