Richland is a historic farmhouse in Blaine, Tennessee. It was built by slaves circa 1796 for Major Lea and his wife, Lavinia Jarnagin.[1] They had 11 children, including Pryor Lea, who grew up on the farm and later lived at Lea Springs; he became a legislator in Tennessee and Texas.[2] Another son, Albert Miller Lea, served as a major in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War of 1861-1865 and later lived in Corsicana, Texas.[1]
The house was designed in the Federal architectural style, with a Colonial Revival porch, completed in the 1930s.[1] The concrete floor was added in the 1990s.[1] The property has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since November 19, 2014.
