Franklin and Armfield Office
Franklin and Armfield Office, now known as Freedom House, was started in 1828 by Isaac Franklin and John Armfield. The office was known to have been the largest slave trading firm in the antebellum south. At its height in the 1830s, the firm transported between 1,000 and 1,200 slaves from Alexandria to New Orleans each year. It then closed in 1836 and was sold several times to George Kephart, Price, Birch, and Company, and Solomon Stover. The property was used by the Union to imprison Confederate soldiers and was then a hospital from 1878-1885. The office can be found at 1315 Duke Street in Alexandria, Virginia.
The Freedom House is owned by the Northern Virginia Urban League and operated as the Freedom House Museum, with exhibits about the building's slave trading activities and the life of a slave.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://civilwarstudies.org/articles/Vol_9/freedom-house.shtm )〕
