According to oral tradition from Cloe Tope, Levi built (or had built) thishouse, which still stands on the south half of Levi's farm. Later, William Vance Tope added a rear section for a kitchen. The addition, which was built after this photograph was taken, extended to the south (left in the photo) of the original structure. The porch was made "L" shaped, and an 
access door from the porch to the kitchen was included.
