1. Agnes Jackson's Home Marker
After Celia Mann [b. 1799 - d. 1867] died, Agnes Jackson (b. 1831-d. 1907] inherited her mother's house, land and personal possessions. Between the mid-1870s and 1880s the property changed dramatically. The earlier home was demolished and at least three new buildings were added. One of the buildings was this house, where Agnes and her children lived.
Erected by Historic Columbia.
