St. Maurice Plantation was a historic mansion on a plantation off the banks of the Red River of the South in Winn Parish, Louisiana, USA.[2]
History
The house was built for the Prothro family,[3] and it was completed in 1845.[4] It was designed in the Greek Revival architectural style.[4] By 1850, members of the Prothro family and their African slaves died of the yellow fever.[3] A decade later, during the American Civil War of 1861–1865, the plantation was taken over by the Union Army.[3]
It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 3, 1979.[4] It was destroyed by fire on June 5, 1981.[5] It was removed from the National Register in January 2019.
