1796 Home FILLED with History, and hints of THE GOAT CASTLE

- Located at one of the most historically significant intersections in the Natchez area during Spain’s occupation of Natchez from 1783-1798 sets this charming home, known today as Holly Hedges.
Although its earliest history dates to 1796 when a structure was built by Mr. John Scott, who received a Spanish grant on what was known as Block 1; it is believed Holly Hedges took its current form by 1805 when his widow, Susanna petitioned for a deed to the lot where the home she was building (or remodeling)sits today.
Of great significance in the chain of ownership of Holly Hedges is the tenure of the John T. McMurran family who lived here until their massive suburban estates Melrose was completed in 1848. Melrose is today the crown jewel of The Natchez National Historical Park.
Still later, Holly Hedges became the Natchez home of celebrated Dallas interior designer Earl Hart Miller and his wife Zan, who in 1948 completely restored the Federal era home and added the interlaced Federal style dormers and celebrated parterre garden to the original home giving it added visual appeal and gave the home the name Holly Hedges.
Earl Hart Miller was also credited with the interior design of the Pilgrimage Garden Club headquarters at Stanton Hall as well as numerous other Natchez landmark homes and commercial buildings.
Today, Holly Hedges is the Natchez residence of Mr. and Mrs. Wes Pack (Tammy) of Fredericksburg, Texas, and together they have completely restored Holly Hedges to a most comfortable family home for generations to come.

Honestly, one of the most beautiful homes I’ve ever seen. The design style so traditional, so exquisite. Love, love, love. ❤❤❤
Oh my goodness! You just made my day! You are so kind and yes we are really proud of the home!
She is quite charming and I love the pre-view tour she gave here of this prized historic home. The Zuber wallpaper is exquisite. I first learned of Goat Castle in William Stadiums “ Secrets of Great Southern Families”. What a treasure for that bed to survive. What a splendid tour!
Thanks so much! The bed is a treasure and we are so lucky it was purchased by a local doctor who had it restored in the best, most authentic way. It took eight months but it's a beauty now!

Magnificent! The way you maintained the old but blended it with today. You and your husband should be very proud.
Thank you so much... we just love it so much!
You did a great job on your home tour!!
I could sit and have tea with her any day! She is truly a fantastic host! Her restoration as magnificent!
I think I would like that very much! You should visit Natchez!

Love this one story home. It's delicious and the colors are true. My lovely Mother loved a paint color called Candlewick. Very creamy. So, I wouldn't change anything. Appreciate the separated stairs on the front terrace. Thank you for showing us your sweet cream puff.
Thank you so much for the kind words!
I want to be her when I grow up.
What a treat, thank you for the lovely tour. Happy new year.

You and Holly Hedges are delightful, and your home is amazingly beautiful. Although I have never been to Mississippi, I would surely like to do so !!
Oh my yes! You must plan a visit if you are able. I promise you will fall in love with Natchez the way I did when I first visited when I was just 22... lo, those many years ago! Ha Ha
Thoughtfully and exquisitely done interiors. So clean,crisp and classy!! The statue in the garden is just right,love it!! Beautiful place!!

I love this home! Tammy, you did such a great job in the restoration of Holly Hedges. It's not only beautiful, it's thoughtful, welcoming, and cozy all at the same time. It's wonderful you've carried on this legacy of historical value and your vision has come full circle.
It has been so much fun digging into all the history. We just love it so much!
She is so cool and calm, clear speaking and has a lot of personality! I think we could be friends 😉
I think so too! Anyone who loves history and architecture is a great place to start!
What a great preview of such a beautiful home. Love all the colors, art and furnishings. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you so much!
❤❤❤ so many amazing and beautiful things in this wonderful home!!!
Thank you so so much! Very kind!
Very nice house. I like the design touches on the bathroom at 14:31. The wallpaper and some of the fixtures look like they are from a home circa the 1920's. I must say the best part of the history of the house (and the one that got me hooked from the beginning) is that there is "no bull fighting in the side yard" written into the original deed. 🤣
Fabulous house and great info, from a charming woman.
Wonderful tour.
Thank you!
Hello from Texas- HAPPY NEW YEAR❤😊
Thank you! Our primary home is in Fredericksburg, Texas!
Beautiful home and hostess!!

Beautiful home and decor.
Thank you so much!
Beautiful I LOVE this Thank You for sharing with Us.❤️!!
Thank you so much!
@ You are so Welcome 🙏 ❤️
6:32 I really like that wallpaper in the dining room.
Our designer did a GREAT job with her suggestions. I love it too.
Delightful tour and guide!
Thank you so much!
P.S. I don't follow College football, so I was unaware of the Jackson State University Marching Band before I saw them perform at the Tournament of Roses Parade here in (Pasadena) California on the 1st. Oh my goodness! The Sonic Boom of the South! They are incredible, and the crowds in the bleachers along the parade route jumped to their feet. These are the kind of events that bring people together, as you do with your channel, Laine and Kevin. I wanted to give a shout out to your fellow Mississippians. Cheers...and Happy New Year!
I love the Natchez Bullfighter! Beautiful tour!💚
Thank you! Wes did an amazing job with it!
This is a lovely home.
Beautiful home!❤
Thank you!
Beatiful house! Hugs and love!😊❤😊
Thank you so very much!
Thank you
The wallpaper, oh my!! it looks so similar to the wallpaper in Cedar Grove Plantation in South Carolina, really beautiful💚💚
I thought the same thing!
@ love Brian Branton and what he’s doing over there!! It’s going to be gorgeous 💚💚
Thank you! It's also in the White House and was put there by Jackie Kennedy!
@@TammyPack amazing!! Thanks so much for sharing!!💚💚
Beautiful and very interesting! I want to know it all!!
Hope you can come see us some day!
Holly Hedges is my favorite house in Natchez. The owners have done a respectable renovation.
Love the light colors
Me too! It's a little different from what we normally see.
Cute modern touches without destroying the history lol. Not an easy feat.
Beautiful home.
Beautiful
I'm sad I can't come to the Pilgrimage Tour. I'd love to hear the story of that Bull Fighter sculpture. Can you do a video on that sometime after the Pilgrimage?
We would love to do that!
The wallpaper @ 16:37?! Aquatic dancing ladies!?
Lovely home tour and history. Thank you.
Yes! They are like vintage looking with swim caps. It's in our upstairs bathroom.
@TammyPack love it! Whimsy and fun for certain!
10:03 OMG! That cat plate is adorable.
It was a housewarming gift from a friend. We have a VERY fluffy white Persian who looks just like the plate!
@ I used to have a white Persian cat too. He lived to 18.
So hoping to be able and go experience the Pilgrimage Tour in the Spring for my birthday.
I hope you can make it!
I love the Audubon painting of himself and his assistant sitting by the bricks for Rosalie being fired while painting the rooflines/ this intersection is ABSOLUTELY recognizable - especially Texada
We are so lucky to be in both of those paintings. It's such a great architectural record.
@ y’all have done an amazing job 🥰
I love the history!
Natchez is such a historic town!
A gorgeous home ! You get like like a queen !
10 panel doors are magnifique!
Apparently unique for Natchez. Thanks!!
A beautiful home.
Wow! Beautiful.
Thank you so much!
Wow wow wow!!!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍
Is Lane an architectural interior designer? She has so much knowledge and is a talented decorator. Love her work.
Gorgeous!
Love the scenic wallpaper and the fretwork? on the walls. Does that have a special name? Seems like it does. I'm a fan of that!
Not sure which part of the walls... maybe the moulding trim by the doors? It has a fanlight above the doors. That's one of my favorite parts of the home personally. Thank you!
9:05 be still my heart wow 🤩
The library is an absolute treasure! I've had so much fun filling it with authentic items the original owners would have had.
The statue is incredible, does your husband not sculpt anymore? The house is gorgeous, I really like the different wallpapers.
He is working on a small one now!
@TammyPack Good to hear! He is quite talented. Thank you for answering
Some hits.
6:19 is it just me or does that wallpaper depict someone going to the bathroom violently lol
I won’t lie- I had the same thought. It’s actually a feathered ornament or sash. But, yeah….
Ha! That has been brought up before! Actually it is a scene that appears to be native Americans doing some sort of tribal dance in costume. Now, mind you the wooden blocks that make up this scenewere carved in France in 1834 based on THEIR vision of what America was like.
I had that same thought ngl 😂 Had pause the video to figure out what was happening 😆
❤❤❤❤❤
Love the Zubair
Thank you! This pattern Views of America is also in the White House.
Beautiful!!!!
Thank you so much!
