Andrew J. Cheney House, Greek Revival plantation house in Marietta, Georgia, United States

The Andrew J. Cheney House is a Greek Revival house built in 1856 for planter Andrew Jackson Cheney on a former plantation in Marietta, Georgia. It is a private residence, not open to visitors, and its design follows the Greek Revival style. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since July 22, 1979.

The house was built in 1856 for Andrew Jackson Cheney, a planter and slaveholder, who lived there with his wife Lucy Swift. During the Civil War, Union General William Tecumseh Sherman was stationed in the house from June 23 to 25, 1864. After the war, Cheney hired freedmen as sharecroppers on the plantation, and the house later passed to his son John Percival Cheney, a Georgia state representative.

After the Civil War, Andrew J. Cheney hired freedmen as sharecroppers on the plantation, replacing enslaved labor. His son John Percival Cheney, a Georgia House of Representatives member, later inherited the house. The property passed to John E. Mozley in the 1930s and Kenneth Newcomer in the 1950s.

The house is a private residence on a former plantation in Marietta, Georgia, and is not open to the public. It can be viewed from the street; the current owner occupied it as of October 2016. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 22, 1979.

The house stayed in the Cheney family for decades: after Andrew J. Cheney's first wife died, he married Nancy Hammack, and their son John Percival Cheney, a Georgia House of Representatives member, inherited it. It passed out of the family when John E. Mozley bought it in the 1930s.
