Springfield Plantation is an antebellum house located near Fayette in Jefferson County, Mississippi.
The original plantation had over[2] 3,000 acres (12 km2) and was purchased by Thomas M. Green Jr., a wealthy Virginia planter, in 1784.
Thomas M. Green Sr., the owner's father, was one of the magistrates of the Mississippi Territory and as such, performed the marriage ceremony of Andrew Jackson and Rachel Donelson at the house in August 1791.
[3][4] According to Southern chronicler Harnett T. Kane, "...the Greens, also went from the Natchez vicinity, leaving their Springfield, a mellowed place of thick red walls and white columns.
Toward the bases of the shafts the colors fade; there is a hint of red through the white, and the rich mold-green that only the years can bring are marks of honorable age.
