Conner House Restoration
Originally known as Blooms Grove, this antebellum house served as Field Headquarters for General Joseph Johnston, Confederate States Army, during the Summer of 1861 and later was used as a hospital by both southern and northern troops.
Through the efforts of many people and organizations, the Conner House will be restored so that the public can appreciate its historic and architectural value.
