Uncle Tom’s Cabin setting at Little Eva Plantation

In Natchitoches Louisiana locals say the graves at the old plantation cemetery near the Red River include Simon Legree and a slave named Tom. Sterling Evans, a Texas rancher, bought the 11 000 acre pecan farm in 1955 and marked the legends with bronze plaques and a gate. He and others note prior fascination with the site and a copied replica of an old slave cabin, though his wife bans Uncle Tom’s Cabin from the house.
