History
The two-story brick masonry house, fronted by a monumental Doric hexastyle portico, was built circa 1852 by Barton Warren Stone. He was born on March 24, 1800, the son of Warren Henley Stone of Poynton Manor in Charles County, Maryland and Martha Bedell of North Carolina. His parents established a plantation, "Magnolia Crest", in Lowndes County in the 1830s. It still survives a few miles west of this plantation. Barton Stone's plantation house, known to his family simply as the "Home Place," was one of three plantation houses that he owned. His other two houses were "Duck Pond" and "Prairie Place." By 1860 he owned 83 slaves and 5,000 acres (2,000 ha) in Montgomery County, with an additional 2,000 acres (810 ha) in Autauga County. He survived two wives and all but one of his sons, dying on January 14, 1884. The property was acquired by L.C. Young in 1901 and then by Jesse D. Baggett in 1933.
