Southern Charms, also known as Southern Antebellum architecture, has its roots in the colonial era. The style emerged in the 18th century, as European settlers brought their architectural traditions to the New World. Over time, Southern Charms evolved to incorporate elements from various cultures, including Greek, Roman, and Gothic Revival styles. The result was a unique blend of elegance, sophistication, and rustic charm.

The sum would not buy a new roof, but it would pay to have fragile papers scanned and catalogued, to preserve them in ways that would outlast plaque-and-parade.

Don't keep her waiting. Go show Miss Cornelia some love.
