The white frame house in the above slide show is the oldest known structure still standing on the lands settled by John, James, Joseph, and Jethro Oates around 1750.  The original six room two-story structure was built by John Oates (son of Jethro and Artesha Oates) between 1800 and 1820.  About 1860, the house was moved to its present location by David Cogdell Oates following a fire.  In the early 1900s, the upper story was removed and the house was enlarged to eight rooms by John Martin Oates and Jethro David Oates. The house is now owned by Hugh F. Oates, son of John M. Oates.
