White Haven, located outside St. Louis, Missouri, was the childhood home of Julia Dent Grant. From 1854 to 1859, the Grant and Dent families, along with enslaved African American laborers, lived and worked at this 800-acre estate. In 1874, the house was painted “Paris Green,” a popular color at the time.
