    Description : My parents bought this house in 1930. It was built in 1840. They got it in really bad condition and my family restored it. This was not really a plantation; it was a Spanish land ground of sixty-six acres. The plantation was some miles away from here. This house was a urban home. My husband’s family were cotton planters, they were some of the early settlers here. My family came from Virginia in the early 1800’s and moved to Natchez in 1938. My mother gave me this house and gave me this tradition of pilgrimage. I’m a member of the Pilgrimage Garden Club and my mother was one of its founding figures. Bettye Jenkins

    Description : The Natchez Pilgrimage Tour was founded by a group of white women, in 1930, to compensate for the loss of resources that came with the collapse of the cotton industry and the 1929 financial crisis. Twice a year, the tour displays what is known as the «Historic Natchez Tableau», a replay of the history of Natchez, capital of the «Cotton Kingdom» until 1863. The scenes depict a presumed history of Natchez from its foundation until the present day, focusing on the splendour of landed gentry, aristocracy and the wealth of the city, without any mention of slavery on which such wealth depended. According to Cheryl Rinehart, artistic director of the «Tableau», the objective is primarily didactic: «teach young people the glorious history of the city.»
