Albemarle Plantation is an historic 1,410 acres (570 ha) sugar plantation on the east bank bank of Bayou Lafourche, in Assumption Parish, Louisiana.
Robert Campbell Martin Sr. (1813-1881) was born in Bertie County, North Carolina. His father was Peter Boyd Martin (1777-1838) and his mother was Janet Smith Bryan (1789-1818). They moved to Alexandria, Louisiana in 1832, Robert already being a widow.
Robert married Mary Winifred Pugh (1815-1858), in 1835 and by 1840 they purchased a sugar plantation that became Albemarle Plantation. Mary was the daughter of Whitmel Hill Pugh, and granddaughter of Colonel Thomas Pugh (1726-1806). The Pugh's moved to Bayou Lafourche and Henry Howard designed the Madewood Plantation House.
