The Henry Hoss House is a historic house in Jonesborough, Tennessee, U.S., though not within the Jonesborough Historic District. It was built in 1859-1860 for Dr Joseph S. Rhea and his wife Lady Kirkpatrick. With The home served as a residence as well as a clinic; the front rooms on either side of the foyer were the doctor's waiting room and examining room, and the upstairs bedrooms were probably for their children. It was sold to Henry Hoss in the midst of the American Civil War of 1861-1865. Hoss lived here with his wife, née Anna Maria Sevier (grand daughter of John Sevier), and their children. It remained in the Hoss family until 1980. Read more on Wikipedia
