"Tipton Place"

Item LND7373. Image was captured after sidewalk restoration. Miss Lucy and Miss Lizzie were schoolmarms in Cades Cove in the second half of the 1800's. They were daughters of Colonel Hamp Tipton, a veteran of the revolutionary war, who shortly after the Civil War built this two story home. The Smoky Mountain homestead he built eventually included a smokehouse, a woodshed, corn crib, blacksmith shop, cantilever barn, and an apiary for bees.
