The John Lining House is one of the oldest houses in Charleston.[1] Although the lot upon which the house stands was first conveyed to French Huguenot immigrant Jaques DeBordeaux in 1694, it is uncertain when the house was built; the first mention of a house appears in a 1715 deed by which the property, including a dwelling, was conveyed to William Harvey, Jr.[1] In 1757, the house was received by Mrs. Sarah Lining, the wife of Dr. John Lining.[1] Although the couple owned the house for less than one year before transferring it to John Rattray, Dr. Lining's name stuck as the name of the dwelling.[1] In 1780, the building was acquired by Dr. Andrew Turnbull, the founder of New Smyrna, Florida, who opened in the house the first of a long series of apothecary shops which remained until 1960.[1]
In 1960, the house was in danger of being demolished, but it was bought by the Preservation Society of Charleston in late 1961 and restored at a cost of $75,000.[2]
