FindaGrave entry Cowan's Cottage discusses a cottage on the estate of James Cowan, a "Mechant Prince" of Knoxville. The home is now on property owned by the University of TN.

Note

Perez seems to have been a cousin of the poet Emily Dickenson.

Perez Dickinson Cowan, grew up in Knoxville, but spent part of the Civil War with the poet and her family in Amherst. Her biographers mention him as one of the few who knew about and encouraged her poetry. Perez spent much of his adult life up north, but is buried at our Old Gray, as is his brother James.
