description

Summary

Significance: The Jeffries-Gardner Farm, consisting of several scattered specialized-use outbuildings and a dwelling, enlarged by three additions, is an example of a family farmstead of the Mississippi Black Belt. Although the house dates from 1938 and the farm structures from after 1942, the site itself is significant in that the property has been owned and farmed by two black families since 1873.
