​Ginger Rogers was born in this house on July 16, 1911. She visited the house

several times during her lifetime. We restored the house to as close to original condition as possible, repaired structural issues, and installed antique furniture and museum items. The general contractor is Gene Padgitt with HearthMasters, Inc.
