By Seeker
The George Pinkney Morgan House, located in Rivesville, West Virginia, is a historic two-story farmhouse built between 1857 and 1860 in the Greek Revival style. This red brick structure features ten rooms and showcases unique masonry techniques, including hand-molded bricks sourced from local clay. The property also includes the Morgan Family Cemetery, where notable figures such as George Pinkney Morgan are buried. The house reflects the rich history of the Morgan family, early settlers in the region, and their involvement in significant events, including the American Civil War. After years of restoration, the house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2003, making it a fascinating site for tourists and researchers interested in American history and architecture.
