[2] Among the history of the cabins have been the visits of past First Ladies of the United States, and the composition of the song "Happy Birthday to You".

[4] In 1939 Lou Tate acquired the cabin and based her weaving business there, living on the property until her death in 1979.

In fact, it had to be closed for years due to erosion damage; in 1986, Jefferson County Judge/Executive Harvey Sloane helped in a rededication ceremony celebrating the restoration of the cabin.

Since that time it has been used for looms, save during World War II when supplies dwindled, and she rented out the cabin for both funding and providing a defense worker's family a place to live.

"[10] Problems include tree trimming, sagging floors, and preventing the cabins from falling down the side of Kenwood Hill by using reinforcements.
