The Stokes-McHenry House in Madison

It was built in 1822 in the Federal Style popular at the time. It was built for Young Stokes, a wealthy planter and lawyer, so he would have an in town residence. It has been in the same family for 7 generations. There is an interesting story from the Civil War era that is at this site.  http://visitmadisongeorgia.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-story-of-mr-smith.html
