Joseph Davis was Master of the magnificent Hurricane Plantation, here in Warren County, Mississippi. Joseph Davis died here on September 18, 1870. Upon a return trip to Vicksburg in Jan. 1869, Jefferson Davis was re-united with his brother and father figure here at Anchuca and delivered one of his last public addresses to the townspeople from our balcony
