 When Woodlawn Plantation was
originally built in 1840, the main house consisted of a
one-story structure. The plantation served as Camp Davis, a
Confederate training facility during the American Civil War.
In 1890, a second floor was
added along with various Victorian-style architectural
elements including a tri-chimney fireplace, a dog trot, and
an attached kitchen.
 For years, the plantation
served as home to the Cubbedges, Peveys, and other families.
Primary crops were cotton and tobacco, along with snapbeans
and potatoes. In the 1930s, the Guyton area was one of the
largest suppliers of such crops in the nation.
The main house provided a
picturesque setting for weddings, reunions, business
gatherings, and even funerals. Woodlawn remains a working
plantation today, with beef cattle replacing the row crops
of the past.
