The Tipton House in Cades Cove
Miss Lucy and Miss Lizzie Tipton were school teachers in Cades Cove in the second half of 1800's.  They were daughters of Colonel Hamp
 Tipton, a veteran of the revolutionary war, who shortly after the Civil War built this two story home.  In 1878, this house was rented to
 James McCaulley, who was trying to settle in the cove.  Mr. MaCaulley was a blacksmith, a carpenter and a coffin maker and worked
 in Cades Cove for a quarter of a century.
