I did some research about this place and saw this. It is about one of the names written on the walls, Narcissa. "Its history includes the story of the death of Narcissa Jane Childers, their daughter, who refused to give up the handsome young son of the plantations' overseer. She was locked in an attic room on the third floor, until she agreed never to see him again. Three times aday, a large silver tray of food was brought up to her. She could eat if she promised to give up her lover. Three times a day the tray was returned untouched to the kitchen. She vowed that she would remain true to her one and only love. Day after day, week after week passed and she ate nothing. At last death mercifully end the romantic struggle. She died at the age of sixteen and today her tombstone lies at the front steps of the Arlington Plantation, as a reminder of unrequited love."

I love what you do! Thank you for doing it! Just one suggestion, it seems you jump around from floor to floor. It's hard to picture the layout of the home. And also, the stairways and hallways of an old home are beautiful, it would have been nice to see the main stairway. Again, you're doing great, thank you! But could you please show the layout so we can picture the house in our minds?

People in those times had a whole set of trials and tribulations we can't fathom...we can talk about them but really let's admit we wouldn't want them. This house is a step back, it's architecture and style is truly lovely,it expresses the time,and the finances of the builder and the craftsman they hired.

So much in that home that's waiting to be restored! I lean toward preservation rather than restoration, at least to some point in time, to include more of the home's history. I owned a 1700s farmhouse, and I kept some of the "improvements" done in the late 1800s because they made the house more interesting and functional. For some of the houses you show us it would be helpful to see a hand-drawn floor plan so that we can keep track as you move from room to room.

She told Narcissa Jane that if she wanted to make her presence known in any way, that it was okay to do so. Immediately, the bathroom light started flickering and then promptly turned off. Had the bulb burned out? She checked the light-switch, which was still in the on position, and when she flicked it off and on again, the light came back on. Old wiring has eery timing."

Conceivably a few construction workers who started working in the 1790s could have been running or at least directing a building crew in the 1830s, especially if they were master builders and in demand.
