This historic structures report provides information about the Overseer’s House at the Magnolia Plantation unit of the Cane River Creole National Historical Park. This report deals with the building currently known as the Overseer’s House at the Magnolia Plantation unit of the Cane River Creole National Historical Park in Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana. Now referred to as the Overseer’s House, the building has served three distinct uses during its history: a slave hospital, a residence for the plantation owners, and a residence for hired workers on the plantation, including overseers. Each phase of use generated particular structural and architectural configurations and modifications, which are discussed fully in the Chronology of Development and Use portion of this report.
