Lynch, Mississippi's first black congressman, was born into slavery on the plantation in 1847.
The Tacony Plantation is a former cotton plantation with a historic mansion in Vidalia, Louisiana, U.S.. It was built in 1850, a decade prior to the American Civil War of 1861–1865, for Alfred Vidal Davis, Sr. (1826-1899). One of his former slaves, John R. Lynch, became a politician after the war.
