The William Johnson Suite

Born a slave, barber William Johnson penned a diary that chronicles his extraordinary rise from slave to successful businessman and also provides the most complete account of the life of a free black in the antebellum South. The William Johnson overlooks our veranda and porch on Franklin Street. Franklin Street is also known as "Antique Row." This King Suite is equipped with antiques, seating, an alarm clock, a television, a spacious closet and its own private bathroom.
