The Hall-Harding-McCampbell House is a former plantation and historic mansion in Nashville, Tennessee. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since March 23, 2010. [2]

History

The land, located near Stones River, was claimed by William Moore in 1784. [3] In 1799, he sold it to Charles Merryman Hall. [3] His brother, William Hall, purchased 249 acres of the land from Charles in 1800. [3]

The house was built circa 1805 for William Hall, and it was designed in the Federal architectural style. [3] Hall, his wife, his son and his daughter lived here with his forty slaves until 1820. [3] It was purchased by Thomas Harding, who acquired up to 1,000 acres by 1847. [3] James Anderson purchased the plantation in 1847, and he sold 200 acres and the house to Thomas McCampbell in 1852. [3] McCampbell lived here with his wife, Anna Gowdey Campbell, and their five children. [3] Their son John Campbell inherited the house in 1875, and the house stayed in the family until the 1940s.
