I love it here in my house in sisters row in jonesborough tn.You know this is the oldest brick structure in tn.Built in 1820.It was built by samual jackson for his 3 daughters He was reated to stonwall not sure how close.I am only the 4th peson on the deed since 1820.There were Items in the house when I bought it rope beds and furniture like empire eastlake and nice gas lanterns.They also used to do a wild game dinner downstairs in basement.That was the original kitchen .Dr bird who bought the building in 1930 he was a dentist and I have all his stuff.Even his log books with x-rays of local people that grew up in this area.I even have a document from the united states senate awarding dr bird for helping and working with people for dental work he proformed.I love my house and wanted to shre this story with all my new friends on collectors weekly.Thanks for reading john
