The Arrington House

The Arrington family were some of the earliest settlers of Nash Co., NC. Arthur Arrington (1709-1779) was born in VA and emigrated from there to present-day Nash Co. around 1760, and his great-grandson Lewellyn was born there in 1792. Lewellyn inherited, purchased or constructed a single room structure (probably with a small loft or attic above) on the south bank of Sandy Creek around 1820, and around 1825, when he married Sally Bunn, he expanded this structure into a typical house of the time, with two rooms flanking a center hall downstairs, and two bedrooms upstairs. (The single room structure mentioned above is now the dining room of the house.)
