History
The John Baynton House is an excellent example of the Federal style cottage in Natchez, and contains fine architectural details with regional characteristics.[2][3][4] It has one story and a half.[3]
The house was built for John Baynton, a land speculator, in 1833.[3] It was purchased by the Junkin family; one of their descendants is John R. Junkin, who served as the speaker of the Mississippi House of Representatives in the 1970s.[3]
