The house was built in 1815 for Thomas Telford, a settler who died in 1816.[2] It was inherited by his son George Whitfield Telford, who lived here with his wife Amanda Duff Hannah and their 12 daughters.[2] From 1881 to his death in 1887, he lived here with his second wife, the former M.A. Hughes.[3] Telford was the owner of the Telford Manufacturing Company.[2] He was also a co-founder and director of the East Tennessee and Virginia Railroad,[3] and he served in the Tennessee General Assembly from 1853 to 1857.[2] He became known as "Colonel" G. W. Telford.[3] The house was sold out of the Telford family shortly after his death.[2] The house was designed in the Federal architectural style.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since February 10, 1982.[1] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2013a}} {{National Register of Historic Places}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Telford, Thomas, House}} {{Tennessee-NRHP-stub}}2. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=82004064}}|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Thomas Telford House |publisher=National Park Service|author= |date= |accessdate=May 24, 2018}} With {{NRHP url|id=82004064|photos=y|title=accompanying pictures}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite news|title=Obituary.
