(March 1997) Enlarge Crescent Plantation. Louisiana SH-602 approximately three miles south of Lum's. Site Marker: During the Civil War, Crescent was the home of Dr. D. M. and Elizabeth DeMoss Dancy. The house was built in 1832. When Gen. U.S. Grant's Federal forces occupied Madison Parish, an officer and several soldiers came to Crescent with orders to burn the house, but did not because a sick lady, a member of the Dancy family, was in the home. The mansion is still standing, and in excellent state of preservation. View looking across Walnut Bayou
