The house was built sometime around 1815 by Enoch Wright on land he inherited from his father, Joshua, who moved to the area in around 1772. Wright family members lived in the house until 1862, when they began to rent it out. In 1972, they donated the house to the Peters Creek Historical Society, which now uses it as a museum. 840: 835: 494: 489: 484: 666: 849: 746: 711: 661: 929: 736: 691: 651: 596: 576: 526: 506: 601: 586: 419: 414: 706: 701: 626: 606: 561: 536: 521: 516: 444: 329: 751: 726: 656: 641: 621: 611: 591: 581: 551: 531: 511: 501: 479: 464: 459: 429: 731: 696: 686: 646: 636: 631: 616: 571: 566: 556: 474: 469: 454: 424: 909: 845: 741: 721: 716: 671: 449: 439: 434: 409: 787: 756: 681: 546: 772: 541: 777: 812: 802: 797: 807: 792: 817: 322: 218:
