Regarding Douglas-Wyatt House. Excerpt from the National Register registration:
Builtas a townhouse in 1894-95 for Hugh Bright Douglas, who owned a 1,000 acre farm 3 miles east of Fayetteville in Lincoln County, the house was designed by the Nashville architectural firm of Rickman and Bills and built by a general builder in Lincoln County named Ray. Hardwoods were cut on the Mr. Douglas' farm, transported to Nashville where they were milled and hand carved and then returned to Fayetteville for installation in the house. All of this original woodwork has been retained.
