Шаблон:Infobox NRHP Ewing Farm is a historic farmhouse three miles[1] away from Lewisburg, Tennessee, US.

History

The house was built in 1830 for James V. Ewing, a farmer who owned slaves.[2] Aside from the great house, he built several other buildings, including slave cabins and two cemeteries.[2] His son, John C. C. Ewing, graduated from the University of Nashville and served as a surgeon in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War; he inherited the farm in 1878.[2] Ewing died in 1917 and his nephew, James Oliver Ewing, purchased the property two years later, where he summered with his wife Helen White Johnson and their two daughters.[2] It was later inherited by his daughter Helen Ewing and Jack Goodman,[3] whose twin sons moved into the house by the 1980s.[2]

Architectural significance

The house was designed in the Greek Revival architectural style.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 5, 1984.[4]
