Facts and practical information

Smith Farm is a small plantation or farm house, built c. 1840 by Robert and Elizabeth Smith. It is Atlanta's oldest surviving farm house. It is a typical kind of plantation house owned by small farmers. The house was located in Dekalb County, Georgia on 800 acres. The last Smith to occupy the property was Tullie, the great-great-granddaughter of Robert. By the 1960s the house was surrounded by highways and development, and was donated to the Atlanta Historical Society. The house was moved in 1969 to its present site on the grounds of Swan House. ()
