Dickey / Sherer Home

Built circa 1770 by John Dickey of Ireland, via Albemarle County, Virginia, this home originally stood on Quinn's Road in Tryon, North Carolina, and is now on Wilson Chapel Road in Bullock Creek Township, York County, South Carolina. It was the home of Richard Sherer from 1844 to 1888, and in 1886 it was deeded to his son Hugh Hicklin Sherer and his wife Nancy Matilda Whitesides. Members of the family continued to live there until circa 1918. On September 18, 1988, the old home was conveyed to the people of South Carolina through the generosity of owner Mrs. Ruth Duncan Latham and the descendants of Richard Sherer and his wife Jane Miller.
