Historical Society takes day in Tennessee with noted author By Karen Middletonkaren@athensnews-courier.com One more stop was Pleasant View, a stone home built in 1947 and which Harsh purchased in 1992. His grandson lives in the home on weekends, and it is filled with antiques from the Arts & Crafts period.
The group also visited Greenfield, which was built by Anthony Bledsoe for one of Harsh’s ancestors. The estate had been out of the family’s ownership since 1912, until Harsh purchased it 17 years ago. Harsh’s older son lives part time in the home. Harsh’s younger son lives in the ca. 1848 Oakland, which is on the National Register of Historic Places. The tours ended with a visit to Rose Mont in Gallatin, built by Josephus Conn Guild. The home hosted such notable guess as James K. Polk and Andrew Johnson. It was acquired by the City of Gallatin in 1993 and serves as a cultural center.
