About Julington Creek Plantation

History

In 1767, Francis Levett, Senior acquired a 10,000 acre estate on what is now Julington Creek. A wealthy London merchant by the name of Richard Oswald encouraged Governor Grant to set aside this prime acreage for Levett, a “worthy friend” to whom he owed “particular obligations.” Levett named it Julianton Plantation in honor of his wife, Julia.
