Does Sarah Morgan's home still stand?
About 10 years ago, after reading The Civil War Diary Of A Southern Woman (great book!), I was in Baton Rouge with my son and I can swear she lived just a few blocks from the river. I thought it was something like 4th street, yet, somewhere on the web, someone mentioned it was Church Street (which seems too far for a cannonball to fall). Does anyone know the exact street and does her house still exist? My book is packed away. I remember being on her street and we also walked past one of the huge buildings where she stayed for a time. There is a picture in the book. The original wrought iron fence is still there! I was thrilled to see it as we walked along the sidewalk, next to it.
I was hoping to get a street view of it, but there is only the arial, birdseye view.
