Abstract:

The Garden Club of North Carolina's agenda for 1939 was to encourage restoration of historic homes. The objective was to find and document appropriate homes and then encourage buyers to invest in and preserve the buildings. One of the club's efforts was the restoration of the Jacob Stiewalt House, an 1821 example of neo-classic architecture.
