Daniel Legare House

[1] The land upon which the house was built was sold to Daniel Crawford in May 1745 for a price that was much lower than expected for a house at the time, thereby suggesting a construction date after that time.

[1] When Crawford's estate sold the property in 1760, the deed included a reference to buildings on the grounds.

[1] Details about the house suggest two different construction periods.

[1] Daniel Crawford possibly erected the roughly finished basement and first floor of the house while Daniel Legare, a man of means, perhaps expanded the house by adding the upper floor.

Wightman served as the first president of Wofford College.
