Have you read Barbara Hambly's Sold Down the River? It's set on a sugar plantation near New Orleans, and it's pretty vividly described.

No, I haven't, but thank you for the mention! I'll have to look it up!
See, my book is about a girl growing up on a southern cotton plantation. I'm working on making my sotry come more to life...
Thanks again!

Try the following historical societies with specific questions.
Louisiana http://www.louisianahistoricalsociety.org/
Mississippi http://mdah.state.ms.us/admin/mhistsoc.html
Alabama http://www.archives.state.al.us/aha/aha.html
Does it have to be a cotton plantation could it be a sugar, rice or indigo plantation?
