Note:

The house built in 1835 for Duncan Cameron was remodeled in 1901 for his grandson Bennehan Cameron, who added a large portico and additional rooms. It stood on the south side of Hillsborough Street opposite St. Mary’s School. Portions of its interior woodwork are said to have been reused in a house in Raleigh’s Hayes Barton neighborhood.
