Henegar House, Federal architecture residence in Charleston, Tennessee
The brick Henegar House, constructed in 1849, stands at 428 Market Street as the oldest remaining brick structure in Bradley County, Tennessee.
Henry Benton Henegar, who served as wagon master under Cherokee Chief John Ross during the Trail of Tears, built this residence upon returning from the relocation.
The residence served as headquarters for both Union and Confederate generals during the Civil War, reflecting the divided loyalties in East Tennessee.
While the Henegar House remains a private residence listed on the National Register of Historic Places, visitors can observe its Federal architecture from Market Street.
General Sherman received military orders at this house to command troops moving toward Knoxville while staying there on November 30, 1863.
