The A.H. Roberts Law Office, originally located at 114 E. Main St. in Livingston, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974 for its architectural significance as a local example of the East Lake style. Built around 1885, the building is also historically important, as it was the law office where Governor Albert H. Roberts practiced from 1901 to 1913 before becoming governor of Tennessee in 1919. During his tenure as governor, Roberts signed Tennessee’s ratification of the 19th Amendment, granting women the right to vote. Originally located in downtown Livingston, the building was later moved to the corner of Roberts Street and University Avenue. When his term of office ended, Roberts retired to Nashville and resumed his legal practice. He died at his home in Donelson and was buried in Livingston.

The Alpine Institute was a Presbyterian mission school located in Overton County, Tennessee. Operating in one form or another from 1821 until 1947, the school provided badly needed educational services to children living in the remote hill country of the Upper Cumberland region. In 2002, several of the school’s surviving structures were added to the National Register of Historic Places as a historic district. The Gothic Revival building is still being used today as the home of Alpine Presbyterian Church.
