McGehee-Stringfellow House : ウィキペディア英語版 | McGehee-Stringfellow House
The McGehee-Stringfellow House, also known as Oak Grove, was a historic plantation house near Greensboro, Alabama, USA. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 17, 1980, due to its architectural significance.〔 ==History== The house was built by Abraham and Harriet Hill McGehee. Abraham McGehee was born in Oglethorpe County, Georgia in 1791, Harriet was born in 1798. They married in 1817. By 1824 they had relocated to Alabama and were building the house. Construction on the house stopped after Harriet's death on February 25, 1826. She was the first burial in the family cemetery on the property. McGehee sold the house and the plantation property to Enoch Stringfellow and then migrated to Mississippi. Enoch Stringfellow died in 1839 and the house was inherited by his son, McDonald. McDonald Stringfellow died in 1875, but the house remained in the Stringfellow family until the late 1970s. However, the house had begun to deteriorate in the 1940s due to deferred maintenance. The house and surrounding property were sold in the 1970s to MacMillan Bloedel, a forestry company. The company attempted to move the house from the property in the 1980s, but the brick structure collapsed while still on its original site. The house site remains on the National Register of Historic Places.〔
