Just east of the station is a slave cabin moved here from the tobacco farm where it originally stood, and on the other side (east) is a small log cabin of unknown origin and unknown purpose.
"There were several farmers around Jonesburg and many of them had slave labor. Many of them raised tobacco and there were several tobacco barns. Liggett and Myers built a tobacco factory, first in Jonesburg, but they stayed only a few years and moved to St. Louis where they are still in business. The factory was across from Ludy's Store, just west of the Historical Society." ~ Montgomery County,
