SAMUEL CLEAGE ~ 2A 32

This was one of the houses built by this itnerant contractor, who left Botetourt Co., Va., in 1823 and made his way south building houses, taking pay in "gold, notes or Negroes". In 1836 it was the central office for the Hiwassee R.R., which, in 1837, became the East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad, one of the progenitors of the Southern Railway System.
