Oakland s Mansion has been a museum for over 60-years in Murfreesboro. The historic home allows visitors to step back into time and gain a better understanding of what life was like in the early to mid 1800 s.
The home that sits on Maney Avenue was a working plantation in the 1800 s. It was originally built on over 200-acres of land that was worked by a large number of slaves, owned by the Maney family.
That was Oakland s Mansion Executive Director James Manning. He told WGNS NEWS that he wants to uncover more of the history surrounding the mansion, which includes finding descendants of the those who worked on the property nearly 200-years ago.
