Linden Antebellum Home
This 1785 mansion was originally known as Oaklands and was owned by Alexander Moore. It was renamed Reedland by the new owner, Senator Thomas Buck Reed, in 1818. After adding the East wing, Reed sold the residence in 1829 to Dr. John Ker. Ker changed the name to Linden. He added the living room and the front gallery, bringing Linden to its present form. In 1849, Jane E. Conner purchased the home and planted the 7 Cedars of Lebanon in front. The ownership of Linden remains in the Conner family for the past 6 generations.
