Mr. Sherman came to Sequatchie, TN 1889 where he helped develop the town water system, built the Sequatchie Supply Store in 1890, and started the Sequatchie Handle Works in 1899. Approximately 35 minutes from Chattanooga at the base of the Cumberland mountains, he built this home for his wife where he also nourished his love of gardening which is still evident today thanks to the current owner's stewardship.
