Is Evergreen haunted?

No claims are filed here — the record keeps this place for its documented history, not for a haunting on file.

The record — long form

Evergreen is the Berkeley seat — the '1827' that's the Lewis built, the 'Bull Run foot' that's the thousand acres. The 'Edmund' is the son — the '33 enslaved' that's the 1850s count, the 'escapes' that's the recorded from the property. The 'Inn' is the '2016 — the 'eleven bedrooms' that's the reopened, the 'country club' that's the wrapped around it.

The 'Network' is the irony — the 'slaveholder's house' that's the listed for the ones who fled it, the 'accounts' that's the survived in ledgers. The 'Doric' is the facade — the 'Greek Revival' that's the '27, the 'fieldstone wings' that's the '43 added. Evergreen is the held — the 'plantation' that's the ran on people, the 'escape site' that's the Network's category.

The file keeps Evergreen: the Berkeley columns, the 33 names, the recorded flights, and the inn conversion.

Evergreen is the archive's Virginia file — the enslaver's listed site.

Why this file matters

Evergreen is the archive's Virginia file — the escaped-from place.

A manor keeps its columns — the file's suggestion being that Evergreen's hold is the inverted: the '33 enslaved' that's the counted property, the 'escapes' that's the listed honor, and the 'inn' that's the sleeps guests in the frame.
