Yksityiset loma-asunnot, Uniontown | Expedia.fi

This is an old house that I found in Uniontown, Alabama as I was just out riding one spring day. (Yep, in my Jeep!!) I thought it was abandoned, but someone is living in it. I found out that it's called "Pitts Folly", although I don't know why. Further research says that Pitts' Folly is a historic antebellum Greek Revival residence located in Uniontown, Alabama. The house was built by Philip Henry Pitts as his main house. Many local legends detail how the house gained its name, but they all center on the people of Uniontown believing it to be folly, or foolishness, that Pitts was building such a large house. Phillip Pitts recorded in his diary that construction of the house began on February 27, 1852. He also recorded the house being completed in April 1853. His assets by 1860 were valued at $175,300. At this time he owned two additional plantations, "Rurill Hill" and "Kings" for a total of 2,200 acres. The 1860 United States Census of Perry County indicates that Phillip Henry Pitts owned 75 slaves in that year, though his children are individually listed as owning an additional 68 slaves. Pitts also owned stock in the Alabama-Mississippi Railroad. The Pitts' had ten children, most of whom were raised in the house, with two dying in the American Civil War. Phillip Pitts remained a cotton planter until his death on April 22, 1884. The house continues to be occupied by the descendants of Phillip Pitts to the present day. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. #Jeepride #old #house #Alabama #spring #blooms #historic #architecture
