City Directories and History: This stately two story house, made of brick covered with stucco was built circa 1810 by Mrs. Rebecca Yongue or her husband, “Parson Yongue”, on land which was part of the original Winn property acquired from Joseph Owen when the town was laid out. Although located in the heart of town, it was built on the plantation order, with a cotton gin and other out buildings necessary for plantation operation.
