History

The land, located near Stones River, was claimed by William Moore in 1784.[2] In 1799, he sold it to Charles Merryman Hall.[2] His brother, William Hall, purchased 249 acres of the land from Charles in 1800.[2]

The house was built circa 1805 for William Hall, and it was designed in the Federal architectural style.[2] Hall, his wife, his son and his daughter lived here with his forty slaves until 1820.[2] It was purchased by Thomas Harding, who acquired up to 1,000 acres by 1847.[2] James Anderson purchased the plantation in 1847, and he sold 200 acres and the house to Thomas McCampbell in 1852.[2] McCampbell lived here with his wife, Anna Gowdey Campbell, and their five children.[2] Their son John Campbell inherited the house in 1875, and the house stayed in the family until the 1940s.[2]

It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since March 23, 2010.[3]
