Marker Text: This home was built by the Gray family, the family that gave Grayville its name. When completed in 1896, it was the finest home in this area and one of the first to have electric lights, running water, and steam heat. Slave quarters and stable were in the rear. It became known as the "Gray Mansion" and retains its original grandeur and charm today.
