Anna Kingsley burns Laurel Grove on Doctors Lake
1813
Orange Park, Florida
Zephaniah Kingsley's first Florida plantation stood on this lake. His wife Anna Madgigine Jai Kingsley had been bought as a slave in Havana and freed by him in 1811, and she ran the property. When American raiders of the Patriot War took the plantation she set fire to her own house and stores rather than leave them standing, got her children away on a Spanish gunboat, and was granted land by the Spanish governor for it.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
