Barclay House and Scottsville Museum
Here stands the Barclay House, built about 1830, later the home of Dr. James Turner Barclay, inventor for the U. S. Mint and missionary to Jerusalem. He founded the adjacent Diciples Church in 1846 and served as its first preacher. It is now the Scottsville Museum.
Marker is on East Main Street (Virginia Route 6) east of Valley Street (Virginia Route 20), on the left when traveling east.
