The Gilliam house to the right of the Knight house was built in 1898 by Richard Claiborne Gilliam (Capt. “Busby”) and Mrs. Annie Lee Gilliam. They were the parents of Annie, Carlyle, Ray, Mary, and also raised his 1/2 brother’s child, Oliver Gilliam. Ray and his wife, Dot Gilliam, built a house to the right of his parents in 1916.
