James Lewis Price migrated to Perry County in 1835 from his native Richmond, Virginia. He began building Westwood in 1836, naming it after his grandfather's Virginia home. His slaves cleared the land and were responsible for the construction of his estate, including the main house. By 1850 Price had finished work on Westwood, now its sprawling plan was complete with projecting corner pavilions and two-story end loggias with recessed cast-iron porches.^[3] Westwood currently continues to be owned by Price descendants.^[2] The 1860 United States Census of Perry County indicates that James Lewis Price owned 108 slaves in that year.^[4]
