Wow. I am taken back by this little undiscovered gem. As you know I have several personal historical reserach projects going on pertaining to our 1830's house.
Recently I have found information about the third owner by the name, McClintock.
He purchased this house approximately in 1908. He only owed it for three years and there is little information on him.
Another project finds me researching a train that at on time passed the front of the house. This train was small and only connected two towns, Due West and Donalds, SC on a 4.5 mile track. My house was an actual stopping place for "Dinky" that went one way down the track, then in reverse to the beginning. Funding and construction began in 1906 - 1908. It began its initial in service January 1908.
In the same time period that the house was sold, to its third owner, was a man by the name McClintock. This man also had the title of "Conductor" of the new Due West train.
Coincidence???
You answer......
