At a time when Georgians are considering which symbols of Southern heritage to preserve, many are unaware of the small number of slave cabins that still exist in the state. Built circa 1850, the Sautee Nacoochee “African American Heritage Site” cabin in White County housed slaves who worked for prominent White County farmer and businessman E. P. White. Over the past 15 years it was restored by a team led by White’s descendants and a descendant of one of his family’s slaves. This one-room cabin had a window, which would have been a luxury.
