Summary

[edit]
Description

The Earnest Fort House (sometimes called the Mauris-Earnest Fort House after a later owner) in Greene County, in the U.S. state of Tennessee. This house, located just south of Chuckey on the banks of the Nolichucky River, was built around 1782 when Cherokee attacks were a serious threat. One of the oldest standing houses in Tennessee, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, and in 2002 became part of the Earnest Farms National Historic District.
