History
16
Carper Homestead is known as one of the oldest houses remaining from the early American era. Originally located on Cane Ridge Road at Antioch, Tennessee, its materials were removed piece by piece and rebuilt exactly as it stood when occupied by generations of the Carper family. The homestead was donated to Woodland Memorial Park for historic preservation by the children of William Washington and Susie Black Carper: William Herman Carper, Ruth Carper Chasteen, Estella Carper Quest, Louella Carper James, Thelma Carper Elliocott, Kathleen Carper Huddleston, Irene Carper Chahoc, and Mary Carper Pulliam.
