Clara Varnedoe House, Claxton

3 Replies
A charming yellow house with a metal roof, featuring a white porch with rocking chairs and an American flag, surrounded by lush greenery and palm trees under a partly cloudy sky.

Built by Aaron Strickland, this late Queen Anne cottage is the oldest house in Claxton. I’m unable to confirm a date, but it likely dates to the late 1890s or early 1900s. Clara Varnedoe (1884-1978),  who served as Evans County School Superintendent from 1929-1940, lived here for many years.
