Description

This Creole Plantation has been owned by the same family for the last 130 years and is still a working sugar cane plantation to this day. It was originally built in 1830 by the Scioneaux family and Francois Gabriel 'Valcour' Aime purchased this plantation as a wedding gift for his daughter Josephine.

The plantation was first owned by Josephine Aime Ferry in 1830, but the Ferry family sold it to Joseph Waguespack (1802-1892) in 1877 (Waguespack's son, Aubert Florian, owned Laura Plantation). In 1890 Saturnine Waguespack merged St. Joseph Plantation with Felicity Plantation to form the St. Joseph Plantation and Manufacturing Company. It is today maintained by descendants of the Waguespack and Simon families.
