While the exact number of individuals who lived on these plantations can vary, census data from 1860 indicates that around 300,000 enslaved people were held in Louisiana. The majority of plantation owners were relatively few in number but held significant numbers of enslaved individuals, often leading to large-scale agricultural operations, particularly in sugar and cotton production.
