The Allston-Pringle Plantation Account Book is a bound volume recorded by Adele Petigru Allston and later her daughter, Elizabeth Waities Allston Pringle, for White House, Chicora Wood, and Greenfield Plantation. The book records the financial accounts for the male and female laborers on the properties and documents their expenses and wages in 1867. The end pages of the book, appearing upside down, were used by Elizabeth W.A. Pringle to record daily entries of the tasks performed by laborers in 1913-1914. Also found inside the volume is a loose sheet of paper listing Adele P. Allston's expenses in 1873.
