Marymont: One of the last built
1124 Rucker Lane Murfreesboro, TN Circa 1861-67. 2-story brick Greek Revival with 2-story column portico One of the last of the huge antebellum mansions. Aaron Jenkins (1750-1807) came to Tennessee in the late 1990s to settle his Revolutionary War grant of 1,920 acres in what became Rutherford Co. About 1795, he bequeathed those tracts to his two sons: Hiram Jenkins (1780-1857) and Nimrod Jenkins (1822-1855). By 1860, Nimrod had purchased his brother’s portion. Photo by Skye
