Enslaved Laundress, Wife of a Civil War Veteran, Property Owner: Armantine Henry
Episode 3
Armantine was born into slavery at Oak Alley Plantation in St. James parish, Louisiana. This is the story of how she went from being enslaved, to marrying a Civil War soldier, and later purchasing property in New Orleans.
For more about life in the enslaved community at Oak Alley, preorder my book Antoine of Oak Alley, which will release in October.
