I am not wearing my glasses and I clicked on this because I thought it was the history of White Castle hamburgers, but I have to say this was much more interesting than I thought.
😂😂😂😂😂 this actually made me crack up! I’m glad you liked the video and I’m sure the hamburger has a very storied history.
Thank you. I was born in Plaquemine a few miles north of White Castle. Plaquemine is a small town also with old plantation homes. We love living there.
Thanks for sharing! It’s a cool small town!
Campesi here, born and raised from White Castle here. Family came here in tbe late 1800s from Sicily. We started sugar cane farming here and there is still many in the family still living here as I do. Great video.

White Castle Born & raised thanks for the video

My family owns sugar fields out in between Breaux bridge and st martinville. We have had this land since my ancestors settled here in the late 1700s
I’ll be out there filming y’all history in a couple of weeks!🙌

@@ktmac7610 yes lol
@LouisianaDread i knew the Owen family. My mothers family was friends with them.
My family were among the First Settlers to the WC/P area
We owned a lot of swamp/cypress swamps…1892 or so began our lumber biz
That’s so fascinating!
You said Iberville correctly. You must have been born there like the rest of us that say it right. I’m from Plaquemine. Great video! Thanks.
I’m from Larose but I’ve traveled around the state often
I have a story that iberville stayed in Bayou Goula about a month while he explored the area. It is said that he had a female child by a Bayou Goula indian. She inturn had a child by an African slave. If that story is true then there are people in iberville parish who are direct descendants of iberville

thanks, very interesting
Glad you liked it!
i got excited and thought that there was a white castle in Louisiana
😂😂 I’m shocked we don’t have any honestly
My farther is from there!
It’s a very historic town!
Sorry to say other than Nottoway Plantation there’s not much else to see in White Castle. It’s a dying town with a lot of shabby homes and empty buildings that were once stores and restaurants located square in Cancer Alley, USA. It’s surrounded by deadly chemical plants, that has residents sitting on powder kegs, complete with polluted air and water that’s taking over where sugarcane farms once thrived. Louisiana, being desperate for industry and tax dollars allow these plants to operate with little restrictions. Every town has history but unfortunately the current state of this dilapidated town is beyond the point of any promise or growth. Even just driving through is depressing. We need to save these towns before it’s too late.
Yes it’s very sad and ever quaint, historical downtown area in communities across Louisiana should be preserved and showcased.
Hell
😂
I've driven through that town many times. Not a straightforward place for a white boy.
It was alright to me. Maybe they liked my style?😂
Ha ha Every pure breed white person and every pure blood black person in Louisiana can prolly dine on a loaf of Holsum and a can of tuna !

Your time line is off. The plantation existed but logging did not start until the late 1800s 2:22 2:24
Forest home and Nottoway is not the same place
I never said they’re the same place.
What are your sources for the logging comment?
Sorry to say this presentation is filled with errors. White castle did not exist before the Civil war 0:25
Wrong
Sorry to say this presentation is filled with errors. White castle did not exist before the Civil war 0:25
If you payed attention, the plantation existed before the war and the town was cut from that land after the war. Please list your sources if you’re going to make a false claim.
