Return of General Jackson to Natchez

[Rickey Brown]

Following the successful Battle of New Orleans, General Jackson and his men returned to Natchez, Ms and then to Jefferson College in nearby Washington. The last weekend of April we held a living history event and re-enactment with a parade and speech by Jackson followed by a period ball.
