The house is near Darien, GA & is still standing & fascinating yet haunting to see. I go often.

So sad, it had to be heartbreaking for her not to be able to intervene on their behalves.

Fannie Kemble settled in Lenox MA, in the same town where her friend, Catherine Sedgwick, lived. She is buried there in the graveyard of the church on the hill. In Berkshire County, no where near Boston.

I am a descendant of Pierce Butler.. And I'm doing research for a future book I'm planning on writing.. I will most definitely add this, that his wife was against slavery.. As a descendant, I feel it's my duty to somehow right this wrong, as my ancestors were very much involved.

Hi Angelina, I'm a descendant of Fanny Kemble on my mother's side. There is a book called Fanny Kemble actress, author, abolitionist written by Winifred E. Wise that can also inform your research. I'll keep an eye out for your future book.
