- Daniel Forney (member of Congress, brigadier general in the state militia, and iron works founder) and Harriet Brevard Forney, first owners.
- Architectural note:
- The six-hearthed home's staircase was modeled after Owen Biddle's "Young Carpenter's Assistant" patternbook, an example of Greek Revival architecture. It is reputed to have been designed and constructed under the supervision of Benjamin Latrobe. Its main room, in many respects, resembles the east room of the White House. Its cornice and mouldings were imported from France and have remained almost untouched since its construction in 1817.
- Historical note:
- Ingleside is the six-hearthed home of Peter Forney, son of French Hugenote pioneer Jacob Forney, is located in Lincoln County, North Carolina. It stands not far from the Catawba River, as a lone example of Greek Revival architecture in this area. Owner Peter Forney was a six times presidential elector, representative to the House of Commons, state senator, brigadier general in the state militia, and iron works founder.
