This large
plantation is situated one mile south
of Livonia on the west bank of Bayou
Maringouin. The home completely
furnished, was given to Barthalomeu
Barrow by his father Davis of Afton
Villa, as a wedding gift on February
14, 1856. Shortly after the Civil
War, Mr. Barrow joined the Pointe Coupee
Artillery as a First Lieutenant on June
29, 1861. Eldorado was frequently
invaded by Union troops.
