The Johnson-White House near Sontag, Mississippi was built c. 1820 by settler Andrew Johnson, Sr. It is the oldest dog trot style house in the county.[2]
By 1980 the breezeway had been closed off to make an additional room in the house, and a gable had been added overhead. The property also included two log buildings: a smokehouse with half-notched corners and another outbuilding with saddle-notched corners.[2]
It was listed on the National Register in 1980.[1]
