What did andrew johnson do with the land of plantation owners seized during the civil war? wiki?

After the death of United States’ president Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Johnson replaces him being the Vice President and was eager to restore the Union.  He then issued an amnesty proclaiming that he will return confiscated property to those Southern citizens who will swore loyalty oaths.

President Andrew Johnson ordered that the lands be returned to their original owners (the plantation owners).

Johnson's approach was a major disappointment to those who had hoped for land distribution to former slaves to help the newly freed black community establish itself economically.  Johnson was taking a soft or moderate approach to Reconstruction, which granted pardons to most white Southerners and allowed them to reestablish their own governments, without any role in that process for the newly freed slaves.  There were others who had wanted a more aggressive approach to Reconstruction that would have punished Southern slave owners more, and would have made arrangements for freed slaves to become property owners.

President Johnson's Amnesty Proclamation, issued May 29, 1865, authorized "restoration of all rights of property" to Southern rebels (except the former 'property' of slaves themselves), as long as those Southerners pledged an oath of their allegiance to the United States government .
