Jacob W. Holt

Jacob W. Holt (1811–1880), was an early to mid 19th century carpenter and builder-architect of Warrenton, North Carolina. Some twenty or more buildings are known to have been built by him or are attributed to him and his workshop by local tradition or their distinctive style. Some of his work includes among others Long Grass Plantation, Eureka near Baskerville, Virginia; Shadow Lawn at Chase City, Virginia; buildings at Peace College; Vine Hill near Centerville, North Carolina; Dr. Samuel Perry House near Gupton, North Carolina; the Archibald Taylor House near Wood, North Carolina; Salem Methodist Church near Huntsboro, North Carolina; Hebron Methodist Church in Warren County, North Carolina; and the John Watson House and possibly the house known as Annefield (Saxe, Virginia) in Charlotte County, Virginia and Belvidere and Pool Rock Plantation near Williamsboro, North Carolina. He may have also built the Forestville Baptist Church at Forestville, North Carolina.
