6 N. 2nd Street, offers visitors a glimpse into this world through exhibits on the Underground Railroad and tours of historic dwellings. Highlights include an exhibit of all or a portion of four historic houses: • Painter’s Range: an entire log cabin home of a tenant or subsistence farmer, circa 1824 • Chance’s Desire: home of a “middling planter,” circa 1787 • Skillington’s Right: home of the Fraziers, a wealthy planter family, circa 1795 Taylor-Brown House: built for merchant-broker Solomon Brown in 1819 and later owned by the Taylors, an African American family. This house was moved twice by mule cart and survived the fire that leveled most of Denton on July 4, 1865, when balls of candlewick and kerosene were flung in celebration at a Civil War reconciliation picnic.
