The Lady in Black is apparition who allegedly still wanders George's Island- a young woman in black robes that has been seen on the grounds. She is Mrs. Andrew Lanier, wife of a Confederate soldier that was imprisoned there in 1861. Edward Rowe Snow, a 20th century local historian, popularized the myth.
