Ezekiel Henry House
ca. 1834
Located in NW Chambers County on Denney's Ferry Road
 
 
This pioneer home was built ca. 1834 by Ezekiel Henry, an early land 
speculator.  Thomas J. Richards and John Pearson reportedly ran a prison work 
farm out of this house probably after the War Between the States and before the 
turn of the century.  The plan of the house consists of two large rooms divided 
by a central hall.  Large brick chimneys covered with stucco are at each end of 
the house.  Interior walls are ceiled with nicely fitted tongue & grooved pine 
boards.  A chair rail and wainscoat are also present.  Two shed rooms divided 
by a porch have been removed from the rear.  The kitchen and other outbuildings 
are no longer standing.
This information is from the Alabama Historic Inventory, #C-157.
