The Thomas McAdory residence was a residence at 214 Eastern Valley Road belonging to Thomas McAdory, Jr. The original homestead, built in 1844 with slave labor, included three buildings: the kitchen, the building that housed the young males of the family along with overnight guests, and the main five-room house.

Thomas McAdory, Jr was a first generation Scottish immigrant who came to America with his family in 1818. He and his wife Emily Owen had six children.
