(Taken from Judy Solis writings)
James M. Dunn, son of James C. Dunn, was a builder like the fathers before him. He built 5 homes in Knoxville, TN. He learned the carpenters trade at age 14. Upon the taking of this information (1927), James had been engaged in the contracting business for 51 years, having built some of the finest residences, business houses, and public buildings and factories in Tennessee as well as adjoining states. In 1920-21, he took his son, Oscar Dunn, as a business partner, which creates quite a long line of family builders. James' proudest possessions are carpenters tools which belonged to his grandfather. These include a plane and saw which are 150 years old or older. Suggested edit: Name: James M Dunn
