D'Evereux Hall is a mansion in Natchez, Mississippi, listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
D’Evereux was built for William St. John Elliot, a wealthy plantation owner, and his wife Anna Conner. The couple were social leaders in Natchez, and the home was named for Elliot's mother's family.[1]
Completed in 1836, D’Evereux is one of the finest examples of Greek Revival architecture in the US.[1] [2] The builders and architects are not known, though in the home's attic are the signatures of William Ledbetter of Virginia, and P.H. Hardy of Ohio.[2]
D’Evereux was one of the first residential structures in Natchez built with a full-length two-story portico.[2] The six fluted Doric columns are spaced 12feet apart and are each 24feet in height.[1] The home included the first cupola in a Natchez mansion.[2]
D’Evereux is currently a private residence, after being closed for many years it will be open for Spring Pilgrimage.[1]
