Fincher - Adamson House
The Fincher House was built in 1882 by J.L. Fincher, Mayor of Fort Valley (1890, 1904-1910), a jeweler by profession. He and his son, George, built the first automotbile in town. Their home was the first dwelling to receive electricity.
The Queen Anne style in this showplace is evident in the multi-pane stained glass windows, turned porch elements, and asymmetrical entry and unique ropework on gable.
The triangle downtown containing the bandstand is named Fincher Park in his memory.
