A House, a Pistol, China, and a Clock: The Articulation of White Masculinity and the Cult of Sensibility in 18th-Century Montserrat, West Indies (2013)
A modest plantation house overlooking the Caribbean Sea on the northwestern coast of Montserrat burned in the late 18th-century. The path charted by the fire was fortunately uneven and has provided us with an archaeologically intimate portrait of the domesticity of empire—from table settings to personal adornment to furniture. The composition of the household is as of yet unknown, however. There are traces of enslaved Africans, and a wealthy British male well versed in the aesthetics of...
"Household Stuffe sufficient to furnish plentifully 2 large houses": The Material World of Jesuit Plantations in Colonial Maryland (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "From Maryland’s Ancient [Seat] and Chief of Government: Papers in Honor of Henry M. Miller" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Missionaries from the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) were among the earliest investors in the Maryland colony, eventually acquiring a dozen plantations in Maryland and neighboring colonies. These estates were designed to support both Indian missions and a college, but by the eighteenth...
"I Likewise Give To Indiana & Elizabeth The Following Slaves...": The Founding of Sweet Briar College and its Racially Charged History (2016)
In 1858, a transplanted Vermonter, Elijah Fletcher, died in Amherst, Virginia, leaving his antebellum plantation and over 140 enslaved individuals to three of his children. His oldest daughter, Indiana Fletcher Williams, combined this inheritance with some of her own wealth and founded Sweet Briar College in 1900 through a directive in her will. In 2001, I began researching the descendants of the enslaved community, studying an on-campus slave cemetery, and designing brochures and exhibits to...
Identifying Enslaved Movement on the South End Plantation (1849-1861), Ossabaw Island, Georgia. (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Archaeologies of Enslavement" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The South End Plantation located on Ossabaw Island, Georgia was operated as a cotton plantation by George Jones Kollock from 1849-1861. During this time, the land was continually modified for Kollock’s agricultural pursuits, all of which occurred through assigned tasks to enslaved individuals. Modifying and moving through the landscape allowed enslaved...
Identifying Landscape Modifications at the South End Plantation (1849-1861), Ossabaw Island, Georgia (2018)
The South End Plantation is located on the southern end on Ossabaw Island, Georgia. This tract of land had two separate plantations. The first dates to the late 1700s-early 1800s, but very little is known about plantation period activities during this time. In contrast, there are numerous documents that provide information about the later plantation occupation and the owner George Jones Kollock who operated a cotton plantation at the site from 1849-1861. During this time, the land was...

Integrating Material Culture from the Betty’s Hope Archaeological Project: a Multifaceted Approach (2013)
This paper examines how archaeological investigations at Betty’s Hope, a former English sugar plantation on the Caribbean island of Antigua, can encompass a variety of approaches in working with archaeological materials recovered from the site, as well as the site itself. Betty’s Hope operated from 1651 until 1944, making it one of the oldest and most continuously operating plantations on the island. Its long history, combined with good preservation, provides an ideal laboratory for studying...

Internally Divided: An Archaeological Investigation of a Jamaican Slave Village, 1766 to 1838 (2015)
On the large-scale sugar plantations of the Caribbean, enslaved Africans were forced into dense communities on the scale of small urban townships. In many cases, the "slave village" site was allotted by the plantation owner, though the internal composition was largely left to the choices and dynamics of the enslaved community. This poster summarizes the findings from a recent archaeological survey of the slave village of Good Hope estate, an 18th/early-19th-century sugar plantation in northern...

Investigating Slave Life at an East Florida Sugar Plantation: Preliminary Results of the 2014 University of Florida Historical Archaeological Field School at Bulow Plantation, Flagler County, Florida (2015)
From 1821 until its destruction by the Seminoles in 1836, Bulow Plantation (8FL7) in Flagler County, Florida represented one of the largest sugar producing operations in East Florida. Beyond being a site of production, the plantation was also home to roughly two hundred enslaved African-Americans during this period. In the 2014 field season, the University of Florida conducted excavations focusing on a single domestic slave cabin. Preliminary results of these excavations will be presented with...
Jesuit Mission Economics and Plantations in the Caribbean (2016)
A central objective of the Society of Jesus, known as the Jesuits, that emerged soon after the order’s founding in 1540 was to send out missionaries to establish and maintain communities of indigenous converts to Christianity. The mission emerged as a common institutionalized form to carry out this proselytizing, and has provided a useful analytical unit for archaeological research. However, the Jesuits operationalized other modes of colonization in the Americas including ranches, parishes, and...
John Drayton’s Garden House: An Archaeological and Architectural Examination of a Gentleman’s Retreat in the Context of the Anglo-Palladian Movement in Colonial South Carolina. (2013)
Drayton Hall c. 1738 is widely regarded as the first fully executed example of Palladian domestic architecture in Colonial America. Located 12 miles from the colonial capital of Charles Towne, SC, the property was conceived as a gentleman’s country estate situated at the center of a network of commercial plantations totaling more than 100,000 acres. Drawing on recent historical and archaeological examinations, this paper will examine the design and orientation of John Drayton’s garden house...
