The 'Kingsley Plantation' was active from the 1790's to the end of the Civil War. Some freed slaves stayed on to work as 'share-croppers. Crops were sugar, indigo, rice, tobacco, okra and 'Sea-Isle cotton whose strands were soft as silk and could not be cleaned in a 'Gin' as the fibers would be crushed. Sitting on the St, Mary's river and St. George's Island, it was far off the beaten track but quite impressive for the sights.

'Slave' quarters on the Kingsley Plantation. King George's Island; maybe 20 miles north of Jacksonville, FL off A1A.

"The photos in the previous post are of an old German pruning type knife I just aquired. It surely is interesting, and quite old."
