NPS Form 10-900-a <br /> 16 <br /> OM6 ARRIOVW Na.No.1Q-4-0018 4 J <br /> (8461 <br /> United States Department of the Interior <br /> National Park Service <br /> National Register of Historic Places <br /> Continuation Sheet <br /> Section number 8.9 Page 7 <br /> Dr.Arch Jordan House <br /> Orange County,North Carolina <br /> 1930,most likely for the use of those actually farming on the agricultural acreage of the property. The barn, <br /> while post-dating the house and tobacco barn,seems to have been built before 1930 as well. <br /> It was sometime after the house was sold again,in 1929,that further additions were made to the <br /> property. The back porch was enclosed,connecting the kitchen to the main house,and an even later <br /> addition added a bay area to the back of the kitchen and a rear shed to the space adjacent to the kitchen. <br /> The property passed into the family of William McKee,a locally prominent farmer,and has stayed in the <br /> family, serving primarily as farmland. The current owner is the granddaughter of William McKee. <br /> Bibliography: <br /> Bishir,Catherine W.
