High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Ward Hall is a Greek Revival antebellum plantation mansion located in Georgetown, Kentucky. The 12,000-square-foot (1,100 m2), with 27-foot (8.2 m) high Corinthian fluted columns, is the grandest Greek Revival house in Kentucky, and one of the finest examples of a mid-nineteenth classical building in the United States.The mansion was built by Junius Richard Ward (1802-1883) and his wife Matilda Viley Ward circa 1857 in Scott County, Kentucky. The mansion was built as a summer residence; their plantation house located near Leota Landing, Washington County, Mississippi served as their winter residence. Junius Ward was the grandson of the Col Robert and Jemima Suggett Johnson family of Scott County, Kentucky, an extraordinarily powerful political and economic family dynasty whose members extended their influence throughout the Mississippi River Delta and who also had plantations along the Mississippi River near Greenville, Mississippi and Lake Village, Arkansas.
