It was added to the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage on September 17, 1976.[2] It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 12, 1978, due to its architectural significance.[1] HistoryThe house was built circa 1846 for Dr. Joshua Sanford Wilson by Isaac Fuller from Maine.[3] Wilson, born in 1792 in Halifax County, North Carolina, was a physician, planter, and politician. His father, the Reverend Joshua Wilson, settled in Gainestown around 1817. He was a Revolutionary War veteran and Methodist minister.[4] As of 2011, the house is owned by the Louis M. Finlay Jr. family. They also maintain the Gainestown Schoolhouse, another National Register-listed property, on the grounds for use as a guest cottage.[5] ArchitectureThe two-story Greek Revival-style house is wood-frame with limestone ashlar foundations and front columns, an unusual feature in Alabama. The limestone, with visible marine fossils present, was quarried locally, at the Gainestown Quarry on the Alabama River.[3] The house is rectangular in form and utilizes a central hall-type plan. A central two-tiered Doric portico fronts the structure. A louvered fanlight is centered in the pediment above the portico.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{NRISref|version=2009a}} {{NRHP in Clarke County, Alabama}}{{National Register of Historic Places}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Wilson-Finlay House}}2. ^{{ARLHref|version=201304|accessdate=April 28, 2013}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|title=Historical Markers & Sites in Clarke County |work=Clarke County Historical Society |url=http://www.clarkemuseum.com/html/markers.html|accessdate=February 21, 2011}} 4. ^{{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=64500005}}|title=Clarke County MPS|work=National Register of Historic Places|publisher=National Park Service |accessdate=February 21, 2011}} 5. ^{{cite book |title=Clarke County |last=Burrage |first=Joyce White |year=1998 |publisher=Arcadia Publishing |location=Charleston, S.C. |isbn=978-0-7524-0400-4 |page=93 =}} 5 : National Register of Historic Places in Clarke County, Alabama|Houses on the National Register of Historic Places in Alabama|Houses completed in 1846|Plantation houses in Alabama|Houses in Clarke County, Alabama |
