Topic: Armistead Burt


  
  History of Nebraska By Morton & Watkins
Francis Burt was already a man of mark in the nation when, at the age of forty-seven years, he was appointed by President Franklin Pierce, the first governor of Nebraska.
In 1854, as in 1832, the South dominated the Union, South Carolina dominated the South, and the Burt family were to the South Carolina manner born, and were of influential standing in that turbulent, intractable, and irrepressible commonwealth.
Burt and her husband shows that she repined over his absence at his post in Washington, and when he submitted to her the question of his acceptance of the governorship of Nebraska she replied eagerly that she would go anywhere if they could only be together.

Francis Burt was already a man of mark in the nation when, at the age of forty-seven years, he was appointed by President Franklin Pierce, the first governor of Nebraska.(1) His previous training and experience in political public service excelled that of any governor of the state.
Burt, answering Beardsley of New York, uttered the following fiery speech: Language is impotent to express the intensity of scorn and contempt with which South Carolina regards the miserable, upstart morality of the North which attempts to hold up her domestic institutions to the odium of the world.
If Governor Burt, who, being a southern gentleman of the old school, would have been proof against these means and averse to these methods, had lived, his initiative might have drawn this Iowa influence to Bellevue.

Armistead Burt's home, now the Burt-Stark Mansion, was built in the 1830's by David Lesley, an Abbeville lawyer and planter who, according to local lore, wanted to give his Northern-born wife a replica of a Hudson Valley house she admired.
Over the next ten years Cubic is said to have built the Abbeville Mansion with the help of skilled artisans and craftsmen, probably all of whom were slaves.
Burt bought the house in 1862 but, impoverished by the war and its aftermath, and because his wife's health was failing, sold the property and all its furnishings in 1868.
