Fitzpatrick House is a historic mansion in Mooresville, Tennessee, United States.

History[]

The mansion was built in 1832 for Morgan Fitzpatrick, a farmer who owned 150 slaves by 1860.[2] His son, Samuel W. Fitzpatrick, served in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War of 1861–1865, and subsequently inherited the farm.[2] It remained in the Fitzpatrick family, except for a hiatus between 1930 and 1942.[2] The owner from 1942 to 1965, John Paul Fitzpatrick, was "a leading pencil manufacturer with factories in Tennessee, New Jersey, and California."[2] His son took over the business and inherited the house.[2]

Architectural significance[]

The house was designed in the Federal architectural style.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since August 26, 1982.[3]
