    This vintage photograph by Frances Benjamin Johnston captures a historic residence in Chatham, Pittsylvania County, Virginia. Built between 1830 and 1835 by Colonel Thomas S. Jones, the house exemplifies the architectural style of its era. Colonel Jones was a notable figure, being a grandson of a Revolutionary War veteran. The property remained within the Jones family until 1901, reflecting its historical significance to the local community.

    The image showcases the gardens surrounding the house, offering a glimpse into the landscape design typical of the period. The photograph is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which documents significant architectural sites across the Southern United States. This survey contributes to a broader understanding of regional history and architectural practices.

    Acquired from the Frances Benjamin Johnston estate in 1953, this photograph serves as a valuable resource for historians, architects, and enthusiasts of American history. It is an excellent representation of Virginias rich heritage and the evolution of its architectural landscape.
