In reading about the Red River campaign it mentions a plantation owned by a wealthy freedman named Carroll Jones in the bayou beouf region being used as a HQ.
I find one surviving with this name on the internet saying it was also called the "reform plantation" though not seeing a reference to it being a wartime HQ.
Another article I found says their was a 2nd Carroll Jones plantation almost identical that doesn't survive, apparently the father of the other one, but it didn't reference either being a HQ. Does anyone know if in fact the HQ Jones plantation survives?
