Johns-King Home
This residence is also acknowledged as the Johns-King Property is in Smyrna, TN and not far from Old Jefferson. It was recently Identified by the Murfreesboro Post as one of the top 10 endangered historic internet sites in Rutherford County.
It was constructed in 1805 as a log residence, by the Weakley household soon after receiving a land grant for the location. Then in 1840, Thomas and Unity Smith Johns bought the property and created numerous improvements.
The creating was used as a Confederate hospital and headquarters in the course of the Battle of Stones River. In 1863, farmers Benjamin and Mary King purchased the home soon after their prior property in LaVergne was destroyed by Union troops and their descendants occupied the residence for a lot of years.
