The stone section of this ancient house, two miles east of Staunton, is doubtless the oldest structure in Augusta County. Here lived Col. John Lewis, pioneer settler, who came with some thirty Scotch-Irish about the year 1732, when Augusta was a no-man's land. Lewis, a fine type of frontiersman and one of the first magistrates of Augusta, died in 1762 at the age of eighty-four, his grave being near the house above. His five sons were conspicuous men of their times; Thomas laid out Staunton in 1750, while Andrew was the victor at Point Pleasant and a general in the Revolutionary War.
