The original two-room brick building, unusual in design, was constructed in 1830 of handmade brick from clay on the farm. It served as a stagecoach stop between Hopkinsville and Henderson before the completion of the Evansville, Henderson, and Nashville Railroad in 1871. Beckley Jackson, who came from Va. by 1815, provided extra horses and a mail distribution point for the stage line.
