| Introduction |
|
Our research is ongoing, but we believe that this brick Federal style house with Italianate front porch was built in approximately 1864. Deed and mortgage records suggest that the house was built by the land’s owners, William and Sarah Johnson. Hoff, an owner of several properties in town, purchased the property from the Johnsons in 1867. Nine years later, in 1876, Hoff and his wife Sarah sold the property to Myra Coryell, second cousin and wife of Martin Coryell. Both Myra and Martin were descendants of Emanuel Coryell, original owner of Coryell's Ferry, for which the town was originally named. The Coryells' descendants lived in the house until 1959. Their granddaughter, Camille, deeded the house to the First Presbyterian Church in 1953 for use as a parsonage, and she continued to live on the second and third floors for six years. Mary and Rich Freedman purchased the house from the First Presbyterian church in June of 1998, after four years of floor sanding, sheetrocking, painting and curtain hanging, they opened their B&B. |

Guest Rooms Guest rooms have been named for the Coryell family members - Camille, Martin, Myra, Emma Lilly, Alice and Torbert. Most of the accommodations are suites with a separate sitting area. At the center of each room is a sumptuous bed so high it invites sinking in. The beds all have feather beds, says Ms. Freedman, which give them loft. The rooms feature electric fireplaces - romantic living at the touch of a remote. |
