Summary

Description
English: The front façade of Affleck's "Ingleside," from 1936. The house was built on two acres in the town of Washington, Adams County, Mississippi, by Affleck's wife, Anna M. Dunbar Smith, from 1839 to 1840. The Greek Revival-style house is built in the traditional Mississippi Cottage form. Affleck founded his famous Southern Nurseries at "Ingleside" and published his famous agricultural journals, newspaper articles, and plantation account books from the house. After the Affleck family left the area for Texas in 1860, the house was sold and had various owners until after the Civil War. In 1885, Allen Duckett Rawlings purchased the property as an investment. He died in 1887. The house and small acreage remained in the Rawlings family until 2018. The images is from the Historic American Buildings Survey, by James Butters, Photographer, April 15, 1936, entitled "FRONT MAIN ENTRANCE (SOUTH ELEVATION) - Rawlings House, Washington, Adams County, MS."
