Generally speaking, slaves in the US prior to and during the US Civil War, lived in housing that they spent their non-working hours. This was the situation in US slave owning states and also in the parts of the Western Hemisphere that were slave owning areas or nations. Brazil for example had housing for slaves until Brazil abolished slavery very late in the 19th Century.

Was the war of 1860 inevitable?
If you mean the American Civil War of 1861, I believe it could have been averted if California had been two states - Northern California (free soil) and Southern California (slave). If those two states had been admitted to the Union along the lines of the Missouri Compromise, then that successful Compromise could have lasted until slavery died out, as it soon would have done, as more countries refused to trade with a slave-owning nation.

How much are the state quarters worth?
Unless in mint or proof sets, only face value. They are all incredibly common and unless in a set they are only worth 25 cents. Each state quarter is worth face value, 25 cents each. There is no difference in value between these and regular quarters. If you mean an entire set of state quarters, there are 50 states, so fifty states times 25 cents each mean that an entire 50-quarter set is worth $12.50.
