Hohenwald Neighborhood

History
2
The neighborhood just south and southwest of the wall contains several first-generation houses from 1897 to 1910 and several second-generation houses from 1915 to 1930, built by early town mayors and business owners. The Kurscheedt Manufacturing Company on Tell Street made fine Hamburg lace and patches for World War I Army uniforms. The bricks came from an early 1800s smokehouse on a Polk family plantation later known as Cherry Glen in Maury County, Indiana. Family member James K. Polk was the 11th U.S. President.
