Henry Clay Grubb built it as the residence of his farm manager.","why_significant":"The nomination presents the house as a well-preserved Queen Anne dwelling that was turned into a small suburban estate by Ross Minish Sigmon about 1927 and remodeled in Colonial Revival style by the Weisiger family in 1939. It also sits on land with a long history, from the Frohock-Macay plantation to Henry Clay Grubb's farm. The form lists seven contributing and three noncontributing resources.","narrative":"Built in 1911 by Henry Clay Grubb as the home of his farm manager, Charles Pinkney Jacobs, this two-story frame house at 213 McCoy Road in Salisbury began as the center of a 372-acre farm. Its Queen Anne character includes three-sided bays with bracketed pent gables, two-over-two windows and a wraparound one-story porch with turned posts. In the mid-1920s the farm became the Milford Hills subdivision, and Ross Minish Sigmon turned the house to face McCoy Road about 1927. He added a garage/stable, a playhouse and a greenhouse, and planted the grounds. Leslie Marshall Weisiger, who lived here from 1939 to 1973, remodeled the interior with Colonial Revival mantels, paneling, French doors and period bathrooms, and built a guest house and other outbuildings. The land itself traces back to John Frohock's colonial plantation and later Macay and McNeely ownership. The property is notable for its intact house, its outbuildings and its layered history.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Henry Clay Grubb (built 1911 as farm manager's residence); Ross Minish Sigmon and Leslie Marshall Weisiger added outbuildings and alterations","architectural_style":"Queen Anne; Colonial Revival","criteria":[],"status_note":"Current function is listed as single dwelling and secondary structure, along with a vacant/not in use category; the description notes recent kitchen remodeling by owners between 1992 and 1995.","vacant_flag":null,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:57:48.958944-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/54/7221/47722154/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NC/99000198.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/99000198/502ac1cf7c-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/99000198/502ac1cf7c-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Ncpappy","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Grubb-Sigmon-Weisiger_House,_Salisbury_NC.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Ncpappy</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Grubb-Sigmon-Weisiger_House,_Salisbury_NC.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/47722154","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grubb%E2%80%93Sigmon%E2%80%93Weisiger_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q19867220"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/north-carolina/rowan-county/grubb-sigmon-weisiger-house-99000198/"}
