The senorial plantation built on an Indian cemetery

It is not mu and large.The Myrtlles estate in St.Francisville was not a property of those considered ostentatious; Perhaps because its owner, David Bradford , did not want to draw special attention when he built it in 1796, lifting it over an old Indian cemetery.

He had problems with the law, had formed part of a small rebellion and could not lead a normal life until President John Adams, I forgive him.It was then that he could afford to start a respectable existence, bringing his wife and his three refugee children in Pennsylvania But life was not easy for his family, they were not comfortable in that farm that Mr.Bradford had built.

There was a presence that always used to be around the house.It was a woman, a Indigenous who watched them from the distance with discomfort and revulsion for having raised their residence in a sacred place.However, they tried to spend short periods in the farm, spending more time in another house and residing there during the summer seasons.

But difficult years came and Mr.Bradford's children were forced to take refuge in the farm during the Civil War, at which time the house was ransacked several times, killing several family members.One of the most frequent phenomena that are usually seen in Myrtles, is a bloodstain quite striking at the entrance door, where they killed one of the women in a very violent way.

The story of the slave Cloe

One of the most famous ghosts of this hacienda , is Cloe's.She was a beautiful slave of color owned by Mark and Sara Woodruff, descendants of David Bradford, between 1831 and 1845.Given her elegance, beauty and education, she forced her to be the Mark Woodruff's personal lover, against his will.But Cloe was an intelligent and intentional woman For a long time not only to escape from the house, but to denounce the illegal businesses that were carried out there (sales, extortion, torture of slaves...).It is known that on one occasion, they found her listening behind the doors, from there that they cut off an ear, detail that she tried to hide with a green turban.
