Facts and practical information

Lewis Freeman House is a historic home located at Pittsboro, Chatham County, North Carolina. The original section was built between about 1811 and 1837, and expanded through the 1890s. It is a one-story, three bay frame cottage with Queen Anne style design elements. The original one-room structure represents the modest home of Lewis Freeman, a free black settler in Pittsboro. The home is one of four remaining dwellings from the town's initial settlement. Due to the lack of records during the early 1800s, little is known about the first residents of the area. ()
