Significance: Jim White, owner of the largest amount of land held be a black in the Heardmont neighborhood, was the only black person in that community to accumulate a sizable acreage without inheriting all or part of his land. Black ownership of more than one hundred acres was most unusual in Elbert County in the early twentieth century. The barn, smokehouse, and one-story center-hall-plan house were the only structures on the farmstead when White moved there in 1926; at present there are thirty-seven outbuildings associated with the farm.
