From the time of its construction until the time of its sale to the National Park Service as part of the creation of the Cane River Creole National Historical Park, the Cottage has been used as a family residence, mostly to house members of the Prud'homme family who owned and developed the area first known as the Bermuda Plantation and later as the Oakland Plantation. In fact, during its nearly 170-year history, it housed families unrelated to the Prud'hommes for a total of only about 25 years. Though the Main House of the Plantation has received a majority of the interest and attention, the Cottage deserves important billing as a significant structure in the life and culture of the area and the times.

This report deals with the building currently known as the Overseer's House at the Magnolia Plantation unit of the Cane River Creole National Historical Park in Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana. Despite its current designation as the Overseer's House, the building has served three distinct uses: as a slave hospital, as a residence for the plantation owners, and as a residence for hired workers on the plantation, including overseers. Each phase of use generated particular structural and architectural configurations and modifications that are discussed fully in the Chronology of Development and Use portion of this report.

The rural stores that sprang up all across the South in the decade after the Civil War quickly became the center of rural life. As Dr. Ann Malone pointed out in her study of Oakland, “the postbellum rural merchant was all things to his community... His store was the hub of the local universe. It was the market place, banking and credit source, recreational center, public forum, and news exchange.” 1 Because of this, Prud'homme's Store at Oakland, which began operation during the Reconstruction period and remained in operation until 1982, is perhaps the most important surviving structure for interpretation of plantation life in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
