The Frierson-Coble House is a historic house in Shelbyville, Tennessee, U.S.. It was built in 1835 for Erwin J. Frierson, who was trained as a lawyer by James K. Polk, who went on to serve as the 11th President of the United States from 1845 to 1849.[2] Frierson served as a member of the Tennessee House of Representatives in 1845.[2] In 1888, the house was purchased by Dr Neely Coble, a physician; it was later inherited by his son, Thomas Coble, also a physician.[2] By the 1980s, it still belonged to the Coble family.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 12, 1982.[3]
