Few places are tied to Ulysses S. Grant as closely as the estate known as White Haven, the Dent family property in St. Louis County, Missouri. Grant married Julia Dent in 1848, and the couple lived on and around the estate during the 1850s, a period when Grant struggled to make a living as a farmer and later built a cabin nearby with his own hands. The title's use of "General" points to a date after his Civil War fame, when public interest in his personal life and homes grew. White Haven is now part of the Ulysses S. Grant National Historic Site, where visitors can still see the house and grounds.
