Description
-
This house was built about 1850 by Robert Wallace and was later owned by Charles Wallace. It was then purchased by John Grace and Theresa Burgess Grace. The Wallaces were lighterers as well as pilots, operating in the channel. By the early 1900s, the house was owned by Walker Styron, who was a member of the Coast Guard station on the island. The house was used by several families during the hurricanes of 1933 as a storm house. Following the hurricane of 1944, the Styrons left the island for Oriental, North Carolina.
