Built in approximately 1850, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[2] Francis Griffin purchased land in 1831 on a high ridge bordering the Mississippi River where he established "Refuge Plantation".[2] By 1850, Griffin had 150 slaves working on his plantation.[3] The "Refuge Plantation House", shaded by oak trees and protected from the river by a levee system, was erected with a view of the river.[2] The Griffins lost much of their fortune during the Civil War, and were forced to sell the property. A subsequent owner was Edmund Richardson, one of the wealthiest cotton growers in the south.[4] The home remains today one of the best examples of a mid-nineteenth-century plantation house in Washington County.[2] References1. ^{{NRISref|version=2010a}} {{National Register of Historic Places}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Griffin-Spragins House}}{{Mississippi-NRHP-stub}}2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=84002445}}|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Griffin–Spragins House / Refuge Plantation House |publisher=National Park Service|author=Tomas R.
