Drane House
Construction of the Colonel James Drane House began in 1846 using a water-
powered saw. The foundation and framing are secured with wooden pegs and
the ceiling with squared nails. Moved to this location in 1981, the house is now
owned and operated by the French Camp Academy. You are invited to visit
the Drane House. The information station, 175 yards to your right, is in the 1840
Huffman log cabin. A sorghum mill adjacent to the cabin operated during
the fall sorghum season.
