Corley could field his own ball team

Posted

The Laurance Corley House is significant for a couple reasons: its age and its association with Laurance Corley. He served in the Revolutionary War and was one of the ancestors of many of the Corleys in Lexington County.

Laurance had 16 children, 8 by his first wife and 8 by his second.

He owned most of the land that later became the Town of Lexington. His widow, Barbara Derrick Drafts Corley, sold 2 acres to the state in January 1820 for a courthouse and jail.
