Texte de Wikipédia en anglais, en attente de traduction.

Sharswood Plantation, also known as Sharswood Manor Estate, is a historic plantation house in Pittsylvania County, Virginia, about a mile south of the unincorporated community of Mount Airy. Prior to the American Civil War, Sharswood operated as a 2,000-acre tobacco plantation under the ownership of Charles Edwin Miller and Nathaniel Crenshaw Miller. The Gothic Revival house was designed by New York architect Alexander Jackson Davis. The plantation remained in the Miller family until 1917, when it was purchased by the Thompson family. In 2020, the estate was purchased by Frederick Miller, a descendant of people enslaved at Sharswood.
