- Built in the early 1800s, Arlington is a stunning example of Federal-style architecture, boasting elegant proportions and timeless beauty. Its majestic columns and grand entrance invite you to step back in time and explore the stories of those who lived here.
Originally owned by John Hampton White, a prominent cotton planter, and his wife, Jane Surget White. They were wealthy French immigrants who acquired most of their collectibles from Europe, including a piano over 300 years old, and remained inside the house till the 1970s; they also had an incredible collection of rare books, many of which were first editions. Unfortunately, Mr. White died in October 1819, a victim of the dreaded yellow fever epidemic, and his wife died a few years later in 1825. This home has seen so many generations of history unfold within its walls. From the opulent social gatherings to the daily lives of its residents and workers, the plantation holds countless tales waiting to be discovered.
Unfortunately, a terrible fire swept through Arlington's attic in September 2002. The Historic Natchez Foundation paid for a new roof, but since then, vandals have broken out all the windows and defaced much of the interior and exterior woodwork. But after all of that, you can still feel and tell that each room tells a story, from the grand parlor to the intimate family quarters.
The expansive grounds of Arlington Plantation used to feature beautifully manicured gardens, ancient oak trees, and historic outbuildings that provide a glimpse into the working life of the plantation." but now everything seems just like one big giant abandoned wasteland. "But why was this majestic estate left to the ravages of time? What stories remain hidden within its walls?
Throughout this episode, I'll show photos of what the rooms looked like before and after join us as we uncover the haunting history and eerie beauty of the abandoned Arlington Mansion."

Ok. What you are looking at is a 4 over 4 style home. That back house was probably servants quarters and kitchen at one time was not attached to the house originally. If you notice there were no bathrooms. That "kitchen may have been a butler's pantry and the kitchen was the lower floor of the servants quarters. The back building was probably a carriage house.
Thank you for showing the pictures from when this beauty shone! It helps to see what it used to look like!
My pleasure!
So much history good and bad. It's amazingly beautiful. Thank you for sharing your explorations.
RangerRick, So Excited to see this. You have really discovered the Belle of the South. This Had been the Grandest of Mansions in it's day.
Good to see the attempt to save the roof, just to late to save the rest. The look on your face while on the stairs, told all, Please, Please be safe.... Just surprised no 'servants staircase'....
Glad you enjoyed it
I love how nature moved into this house like it was built for it
Surely in the right hands this could be saved. Imagine when done how stunning it could look again and would be an amazing home for the right family.
"Gotta find a place to park"
Made me laugh when he said that.
:)
The thickness of the walls is unreal. They sure don’t make them like they use to.😊
Our house is 200 yrs. Old it's old horse hair plaster.
Hi Rick, thank you for taking us to that mansion! It was really cool seeing the pictures of what the house use to look like. I hope you have a great day and be careful of the snakes ewww creepy!❤
My husband is from Natchez, he house sat for the family as a young adult. when we got married in 1988 the current family that owned the mansion still lived in it. The historical society wanted to buy it from the son he refused to sell it. Hes a doctor in another city he let get go to ruin long before the fire ive been in it before and after the fire. Allegedly
Some one needs to get this place and remodel it
Thanks for the footage and the history on this place, shame someone couldn't fix it up , all that property land going to waste,thanks for the explore👍
I agree. And ty!
Love, love this video 💞 Thank you so much for going out and recording this beautiful homestead ♥️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hey Rick I'm glad you got off that set of stairs safely I know you can film more videos then.
Thank for sharing history too bad they can't save it
Awesome 👍🏾 thank you 👍🏾😁
You’re welcome 😊
Kind of almost like that movie money pit
Just gorgeous before & after 😍
Some people can be so rude on here. These videos take a lot of time and effort. Sounds like you did as much research as you could. Keep making great videos! To the people that want to tell you how to do things: move along.
Great house!!!
Fascinating! It's a shame that the mansion was not preserved. There should be a carriage house near the mansion. They all had them. Great video.
I agree with you
I bet a metal detector would uncover a lot of lost treasure.
Ooooooo I love me some plantation houses they are so pretty.
Same here.
Must have been such a beautiful house! It made me nervous being up that high and I wasnt there!
The “guest houses” were probably carriage houses and or slaves quarters.
The lattice looking window is called a fanlight. They are often seen in Georgian style homes and buildings.
Hi Rick I bet that plantation look magnificent in its day nice find ❤
I'm sure it did.
Hahah, Great video my man!
Appreciate it!
This home could have been saved many times throughout it history but no one done any thing about this is what happens when people stop care ….
Would be cool to do a evp there from Hobart Tasmania Australia 🦘 watching
Hey I met. Deadly knot on here as well. Really cool. Young guy. He. Shared information about. Arlington plantation. As I watched. His videos. Cool. Guy.
Hello! I went back to refilm it once again hahah.
@@DeadlyKnot cooool good to seee ya
@@Kimtwister Same with you!
History house registered historical they can rebuild so l9ng as they do it exactly as it was ..
👍👍👍😎☕
It's a shame to say someone paid to have a new roof put on this historic building and then left it behind thrashed and now they are leaving it opened to the elements .someone should buy this and save it .
What a waste 😢loved the historical information
Mind the snakes !!
Rick, some of the buildings were probably for some of their workers.
Ranger Rick did you find out how did it caught on fire
I think the trees are Aspen's Rick but I'm not certain
Aspens don’t grow well in Mississippi I think these are red oaks.
Looks more like poplar than anything else that grows in Mississippi.
Is that a skull inside that column
They had a business on site
What happened to them
Residents and "workers". I bet these "workers" were slaves. As a "prominent cotton planter" as the owner is called in video, how could there not have been slaves there. Interesting video.
it's not a guest house it's a summer kitchen if you are going to do videos like this you need to learn about them
Spider web
The grass needs a haircut
Historic out buildings? Slave quarters??
Slave house is secondary house.
Pls polish up your commentary 🤷🏼♂️😵
